National Trails Day takes place annually on the first Saturday in June. The day is sponsored by the American Hiking Society and designed to spread awareness of the vast network of trail systems throughout the country. The American Hiking Society strives to make hiking more accessible to all, regardless of age, fitness level, and prior experience. One hike was recently recognized by the American Hiking Society as a National Recreation Trail in Georgia: the Harris Greenway Trail in Gwinnett County, GA. We’ve got so many wonderful trails in Georgia, and it’s fantastic that this one is receiving national attention. Check it out:
