City, schools offer North Boundary Trail hike on March 14

Oak Ridge municipal and school committees will lead a six-mile hike on the North Boundary Trail on Saturday, March 14.

The hike, which could last about three hours, will leave the North Boundary “yellow gate” (just west of Wisconsin Avenue) at 9 a.m. and follow the Quarry trail, making a right onto Hunley, a right onto North Boundary, and down the Gallaher connector.

This hike is considered moderate in difficulty due to varied elevations and length.

“Please plan accordingly by dressing for weather conditions and preparing yourself with water/snacks, if needed,” organizers said.

In case of extreme weather, visit the city’s website at www.oakridgetn.gov for hike information.

The hike is sponsored by the City of Oak Ridge Wellness Committee and Oak Ridge Coordinated School Health.
