When: Sunday, May 12th at 1PM
Where: Johnson Elementary School (meet near the playground)
1645 Cherry Ave, Charlottesville, VA 22903

Join us every month for a free guided walk along the Rivanna Trail. Each month we will walk a different section, usually around 5 total miles, as we gear up for the Loop de’Ville Trail Fest in September.

This month we are walking the trail from Fontaine Research Park to Ivy Rd. Most of the trail will be on dirt and uneven terrain but there is a tricky road crossing too. Check the weather report and make sure to dress appropriately.

Registration is not required and everyone is welcome! Meet at the RTF tent next to the trailhead in the back right corner when entering the campus (Construction at Fontaine Research Park might change the start location but we will update this when we get closer).

Here is a map of our route: https://ridewithgps.com/routes/45239209

If you can't join us on the 19th we still encourage you all to patriciate by walking/biking/running this section of the trail and recording your miles on the spreadsheet below:

We will celebrate all the "loopers" at this year's Trail Fest on September 28th!
