We will walk about 7 miles starting at the Rockwood Museum. We will head up Talley Road, through Weldin Ridge, onto the Northern Delaware Greenway Trail, pass a golf course to the Can-Do Playground, and then over to Alapocas Woods and back to Rockwood Park.

This course is all on paved asphalt and has mostly rolling hills. However, Talley Road is a long steep climb.
