🍂 Fall Foliage Hike on Buffalo Mountain (Tip Top Trail)! 🥾
Now that the weather is cooler, join us for a crisp, scenic morning on the trail! We are heading up to Buffalo Mountain Park to tackle the Tip Top Trail loop on Saturday, October 10.
When: Saturday, October 10
Time: Meet at the park at 9:00 AM
Where: Buffalo Mountain Park (Johnson City) – parking can fill up on peak fall weekends, so arriving right on time is key!
What to Expect & Distance:
We’ll be taking the scenic route up via the Tip Top trail (around 3.5 to 5.5 miles with 1,158 elevation gain depending on our loop), which treats you to incredible ridge views, vibrant autumn colors, and stunning quartzite rock overlooks.
This is a family friendly hike and all ages are welcome. Leashed dogs are allowed to the hike.
All experience levels are welcome! We always hike as a group and keep a steady, manageable pace. Quick tip for beginners:*Because this is a longer distance with some steady climbing, if you're newer to hiking or longer walks, we recommend squeezing in a few practice walks beforehand to build up your stamina and help prevent any soreness or injuries.
What to Bring:
* Sturdy hiking shoes or trail runners
* Plenty of water and some trail snacks
* Layers (morning mountain air can be crisp before you warm up on the trail)
Drop a comment or RSVP below if you plan on coming so we have a headcount. Can't wait to hit the trail with you all!
