About this event

  • Event lasts 6 hours

As part of an effort to hike all of the American Discovery Trail in Kentucky, we will meet at Fernbank Park in Ohio - Tecumseh Area - This park is a joint effort between Cincinnati Parks and Great Parks of Hamilton County- per what I see online there is not a permit needed. There is parking near the restroom area. Be aware there are a few parking areas at the park, this is near the circle and the location can be see on google- can use address for gps, however it is not direct to this pin..

We will likely use Bender Mountain as the parking to end this hike but I dont wish at this time to change the meeting location.

We will then shuttle with as few cars as possible over to Devou Park where the last hike ended. Drees Pavilion 790 Park Ln · Covington, KY

The walk is expected to be about 12.15 miles- last year was 13.27- perhaps a bit longer at an easy pace.
This will be hike 2 of 2 of KY ADT.
We might continue in an additional event for the remaining piece of Segment 10- to Elizabethtown.
