A Spooky Trivia Hike – Highlands Cashiers Land Trust

Written By: Julie Schott - Highlands-Cashiers Land Trust | Issue: 2020/10 - October
Among the hauntingly beautiful mountains of the Southern Appalachians, nestled only steps away from downtown Highlands, is the historic
Kelsey Trail.
Built over a century ago by one of the town’s founders as a path to Whiteside Mountain, the remnants of this popular trail are now protected by Highlands-Cashiers Land Trust and open to the public.
This Halloween, all ghosts and goblins (and the people who love them) are invited to unearth the secrets she holds, starting Friday, October 23 through Saturday, October 31. This self-guided, trivia walk will test your knowledge of all that dwells here.
The moderate hike is appropriate for all ages. Visit hicashlt.org for details. Remember to stay six feet apart…or else.
