Marcella Vivrette Smith Park – Brentwood

Monday, March 11 – Marcella Vivrette Smith Park. 1825 Wilson Pike, Brentwood. 3.25 miles rated moderate. Joint hike with the Nashville chapter. Meet at the trailhead parking lot at 9:00 A.M. CT. There is a restroom there, but none along the trails. We will hike the Blue and Red trails for a total of about 3.25 miles. The trails are dirt, with rocks and roots, elevation gain of probably 200 ft maximum. We will go at a social pace so we can pause to look at the plants and birds along the way. The Red trail is a spur to a lookout point, (with a few benches), then rejoins the Blue trail. Hiking poles are useful, particularly on the rockiest, rootiest part of the Blue trail. The route goes up and down wooded hills and through a meadow. There are benches here and along the way. Please bring your snacks, water, electrolytes, sunscreen, bug spray, hat, and check the forecast before gearing up for the hike.
