Upcoming Hike on Sunday, June 8:
Wintergreen Falls, DuPont State Forest
Each year, Holy Hikes-WNC schedules a weekend hike in order to welcome those who work during the week or attend school. On Sunday, June 8, Fr. Josh and his family will lead a hike in DuPont State Forest then welcome us to a cookout at their home. Both the hike and the cookout are open to all. Feel free to sign up for the hike only or the cookout only.
In the early afternoon, our hike will take us to Wintergreen Falls. This is an easy, 3.1-mile trail with an elevation gain of 252 feet. Please pack water and some snacks. Dogs are allowed but must remain leashed. Plan to meet at 2:00pm at the trailhead located at the DuPont State Forest Guion Farm Access Parking Lot, 3015 Sky Valley Rd, Hendersonville NC 28739.
After the hike, Fr. Josh and his wife Rosanna invite you to their home located near DuPont State Forest from 4:00 to 7:00pm. Find their address in the parish directory, and email Mims if you do not have access to the directory. Children are welcome to swim in their pool.
