Moss Rock Day Hike

Moss Rock Preserve
Southeastern Outings will host a day hike at Moss Rock Preserve in Hoover at 2 p.m. on Dec. 15. Explore the wilder side of Hoover on a moderately strenuous 2-4-mile hike with considerable climbing up and walking down steep hills on Shades Mountain. Hikers can take in the longleaf pine forests, boulders, streams, views and maybe even a few waterfalls during the hike. Hikers need to bring water to drink. Well-behaved, properly supervised children 12 and older are welcome. The group will leave at 2 p.m. from the gravel parking lot just off Preserve Parkway near the Village Green in The Preserve subdivision. For more information, contact David Shepherd at 240-4681.
