    6 HOUR WALK - Easley to Pickens - Doodle Trail

    Doodle Trail, 517 Wilbur St, Easley · verified Aug 2
    See details

    Tackle a challenging out and back walk on the Doodle Trail, beginning on the Easley side and heading to Pickens. The route is about 8.5 miles to town, with a lunch break in Pickens, then a return walk of the same distance back to the cars. The goal is roughly six hours on foot, though the total time could be a little shorter or longer. There is a $20 accountability fee, and at the finish one participant will be randomly selected to receive half of the total collected fees. For example, if 10 people take part, the pot would be $200 and the winner would receive $100. This six hour effort serves as a step toward a future 12 hour walk.
