Come and join us to be among the first people to step foot on the newly protected South Yellow Mountain Preserve. You might have heard about this property in the news lately. We’ve recently acquired this 7,500-acre preserve and we’re thrilled to share it with you. Our preserve manager, Park Greer, has gotten know every corner of this property and he has chosen this hike especially for the June Jamboree event. This hike offers magnificent waterfalls, breathtaking views, and vast expanses of protected land. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to explore conservations at its finest!

We hope participants will join us after the hike at our neighboring Elk Hollow Preserve, just 20 minutes down the road for our Drop-in Social to celebrate our conservation success in the Highlands of Roan!

This hike is currently FULL! Please consider the other hikes we are offering as part of the June Jamboree. If you would still like to be added to the waitlist for this hike, please email travis@appalachian.org.
