Description: National Trails Day Hike
Location: Savage Gulf State Park
Join Ranger Jamie on National Trails Day for an approximate 4-mile guided hike to Rattlesnake Point Overlook via the Savage Day Loop Trail. We will meet at the Savage Gulf East Trailhead (3157 SR 399, Palmer, TN) at 1:30 p.m. to begin the hike. This hike will be approximately 4 miles in total and is considered moderate, however the trail can be strenuous in certain areas- please be prepared for a challenging hike.
Please make sure you have sturdy hiking shoes, plenty of water and snacks, and are capable of completing the entire hike. We will take short breaks as needed but will also be walking for extended periods of time during the hike.
We will observe a beautiful overlook and we will chat about the park and/or what we see along the way. Accessory items to help you enjoy the hike such as cameras and binoculars are encouraged but not required.

NOTE: This hike is weather dependent and will be cancelled in the case of inclement weather.

NOTICE: The areas around overlooks can be treacherous in terms of keeping your footing. The potential to slip and fall exists, and extreme care is needed.
