**Location: South Hill Rec Way/Six Mile Creek, south side, rim trail**

This is a great trail along a wild and beautiful gorge – it’s amazing that such a walk could exist so close to downtown. It runs parallel to the popular and busy South Hill Rec Way, a former railroad right-of-way, but when you’re on the rim trail you’re in a different world. The narrow path runs along the side of a steep slope. There are lively terrain changes, pine trees, and wonderful views down into the creek far below.

This is hike [#2-1](https://www.ithacahikers.com/hike-2) on the Ithaca Hikers website. Jim will lead.

Park along Crescent Place in Ithaca, where the road makes a big bend and there’s access to the South Hill Recreation Way.

We leave promptly at 9:30, so plan to be at the meeting point a few minutes early.

As of 11/30, the weather is expected to be cloudy with possible snow showers and a high of 34F. Dress warmly in layers and bring hiking poles and foot traction in case of icy conditions.

**IN CASE OF INCLEMENT WEATHER,** any changes will be announced as early as possible on Meetup and via messaging to hikers who have RSVP'd, so always check Meetup before leaving home to drive to the trailhead.

**PLEASE NOTE:** Hiking carries inherent risks. Before you join a hike, make sure you are at an [appropriate fitness level](https://www.ithacahikers.com/join-us) to hike for two hours over rough terrain in varying weather conditions. Also, come with appropriate hiking gear, such as footwear designed for hiking. In the summer, you should carry water and use insect repellent and/or sun protection. For winter hikes, foot traction is necessary for icy conditions. For more information about hiking gear, see our [frequently asked questions](https://www.ithacahikers.com/contact-2) page. Hikers join us at their own risk, so be prepared!
