Join Rome Georgia Pride for our December H.I.K.E. with Pride walk on Saturday, December 7th at 10:00 AM! This month we’ll explore the beautiful woodland trails of Jackson Hill — a moderate hike with forest paths, gentle inclines, and a peaceful, natural landscape perfect for grounding and community connection.
We’ll gather at the Steam Engine Pavilion at the Rome/Floyd Visitor Center (just steps from the trailhead) before heading out together. This series rotates monthly between paved and woodland trails, offering opportunities for all experience levels to enjoy the outdoors with Pride.
We’re excited to share that some of our friends from the PFLAG Rome Georgia Chapter will also be joining us on the trail!

💬 After the Hike
We’ll return to the pavilion for a short meet & greet. Rome Pride board members will be available with information on upcoming H.I.K.E. events and our Trailblazer Adventure Club plus bottled water for anyone who needs a refill. Members of PFLAG Rome board will be there as well to share about PFLAG weekly events, support groups, and gatherings.
🛍️ Optional Post-Hike Activity
From there, small groups will head over to the Winter Art Market at the Visitor Center nearby to support local artisans, crafters, and small businesses. Perfect for holiday shopping and continued community time!
Come as you are. Bring a friend. Move your body. Build community.
We can’t wait to explore the woods with you! 🌈🌲
