Walk the Elephant Trail - 6-6.25 miles

This hike will be around 6-6.25 miles at a quick moderate pace - (18-20 minutes per mile). It is a straight out and back path. The entire trail goes from Aura to Elmer for about 5.1 miles. We are going to hike out @3 miles then come back.

Since this is a fairly quick moderate pace, to be fair to the group, ALL hikers MUST be able to keep this pace for the entire 6 plus miles and hike with the group.

The trail is an unpaved path with a lot of stones and wood chips. Recommend comfortable hiking shoes or boots only. Not a lot of wet areas but do recommend using tick and mosquito protection.

We will stop about 1 mile in for a quick drink and any clothing adjustment. Around mile 4, we will stop for 15 minutes for a light lunch and/or snack.

There are a couple of road crossings. There are bathrooms prior to the start at the baseball complex we will park in.

Look for a black Honda Pilot with a bike rack on the back. I have a long blond braid.
