Save the date!

From noon-5 p.m. on April 25, MountainTrue and Friends of the Big Ivy will offer several guided hike options, each led by a naturalist, will traverse this beautiful, remote, mountain land composed of more than 30 miles of trails.

We’ll offer choices of four to five different hikes, all starting at noon.

Details on specific trails and hike leaders will be posted here soon.

Big Ivy has more than 3,000 acres of old growth forests and over 30 rare and endangered species worth protecting.

Save the date for the opportunity to explore our beautiful forests which are threatened by the current draft of the U.S. Forest Service’s Forest Management Plan.
