Description
Location: Meadow River Rail Trail – Russellville Trailhead
Community Captain: Becky
When: Monday, August 18th –9:00 AM at The Hub (232 Lee St Building C, Lewisburg, WV 24901)
About This Event:
Join Community Captain Becky for a walk-at-your-own-pace hike on the Meadow River Rail Trail, a beautiful and easy trail still in development across Greenbrier and Fayette Counties. While similar in grade to the Greenbrier River Trail, this route offers its own unique scenery and peaceful experience. Bring your walking shoes—or your bike—and enjoy this gentle out-and-back route from the Russellville Trailhead.
What to Expect:
• A flat, wide rail trail walk or ride at your own pace
• Flexible distance and time—choose your direction and how far you go
• Social time and lunch on the trail with other participants
How to Prepare:
• Bring water, sunscreen, and lunch
• Wear comfortable walking shoes or bring your bike (leader will be walking)
