Flat Rock State Natural Area Wildflowers

Murfreesboro, TN

4 miles. Easy.

*** Note Time Change ***

Flat Rock is a lesser used trail and offers a great example of middle Tennessee cedar glades and barrens. The wooded sections, meadows, and contrastingly stark rocky areas yield their own unique variety of what are often specifically adapted wildflower species. We’ll hike at a pace that allows us to appreciate the natural beauty around us. The loop trail is relatively flat with a few gentle inclines. The first segment is rocky and others may be wet or muddy so hiking shoes or boots are recommended. Bring water and snacks for the trail. We’ll meet at the trailhead at 10:00 AM. Afterwards we’ll head over to Carmen’s Taqueria for lunch. Register with Mark for details and updates. Alternate date for inclement weather: Friday, May 6th.
