Great Hikes

This books does have some great hikes around Birmingham. I'm sure to find 60 hikes, some had to be very easy and not really what I would classify as a hike. But overall a great book!

Portico Birmingham Magazine

From our local publisher, Menasha Ridge Press, this is a welcome book for all nature-lovers in Birmingham. You'll find rural and urban hikes, wildlife hikes, historic hikes and more. There are ample illustrations and the book is attractive enough to lure you out of the house to get out and make use of the great weather we enjoy neary year-round (the dog-days of July and August not included).

Finally!

As a new citizen to Birmingham I was anxious to explore the city and its surroundings. After conquering the trails of Oak Mountain, Ruffner Mountain and Little River, I was eager to move on to bigger, better more! A good compilation of local trails in detail. The difficult choice now is which one do I tackle next weekend?
