Hike to the Headwaters!

  • Saturday, September 10 | 9:30 AM – 11:30 AM
  • South Mountain State Park
  • 3001 South Mtn Connelly Springs, NC 28612

At the beginning of the year we kicked off the Riverkeeper Learning Series with a hike at Catawba Falls, the headwaters of the Catawba River. This month join us at South Mountain State Park for a morning hike near the headwaters of the South Fork River of the Catawba. We’ll share information about the South Fork River and why this park is considered the headwaters or place of origin for this river. Trailhead specifics will be sent out in an email the week of the event, but expect a moderate level hike with uphill portions.
