Upcoming Trail Projects


On May 11 we're planning work on the Visitor Center side of Kennesaw Mountain. Please check in @ Old Hwy 41 overflow parking lot, assemble @ Visitor Center picnic area by 8:30am.

  1. Clear and prepare ground for sound barrier planting along Stilesboro Road/picnic area.
  2. Perform maintenance of removing berm and clearing loose rock and invasive plant growth along the moderate trail going from visitor center trail head to the mid mountain fire road.
  3. Repairing loose, large stone at first level of rock stairs at mid mountain fire road to trail going up the mountain.
  4. Cleaning out loose gravel from ditch along rock stairs, first set, at mid mountain fire road going up the mountain.
  5. On level trail above large rock stairs perform maintenance to control erosion, by pulling dirt that has washed off the trail, back up to the trail tread and installing armored nicks (rock stacked on ground) in areas that have been washed out.
  6. Rake over and lay brush and dead fall in area where social trail has developed, which has bypassed established trail at the rock steps area going up mountain from level trail.
  7. Youth conservation project will be clearing debris from the picnic and dry creek area and stacking rock border at the visitor center sidewalks to better direct pedestrian traffic to allow better plant growth in the area
Request crew leaders to come to the trail club tool shed 7:45am for assignment and tool distribution. We look forward to a productive morning of service to aid our park in getting ready for the upcoming 150th anniversary of the Battle @ Kennnesaw Mountain.
