Light Hike to Edge of the World Rapids!
**THIS EVENT IS ONLY FOR THOSE IN THEIR 20’s & 30’s**
Have you seen the jaw-dropping view of the Edge of the World Rapids along the Amicalola River? This stunning 3-mile trail is a FAVORITE for locals! It typically requires people to have a hunting/fishing license; however, we have acquired a special permit from DNR to allow our group to go for free! So join us for a day of awe-inspiring scenery, good exercise, fun and great fellowship as we get out and explore God’s incredible creation.
*If you’ve never been to an Echo Next Gen event, this is the perfect time to come! You will definitely meet other first-timers and leave feeling encouraged and connected*
