Savannah River Bluffs Heritage Preserve

Dood and I have been hiking a few times around the area. He just bought me a kick ass camera, so I wanted to get out in the daylight and play around with it. We decided to go to the Savannah River Bluffs Heritage Preserve right down the road from our house.



We had no idea what to expect, but were pleasantly surprised with the terrain. Hilly, rocky and a bit steep at some points.

As we got closer to the water, I kept asking, "what is that noise?" And he would reply, "The interstate, it's the interstate." But it turned out to be a lovely view of the Savannah River with no interstate or cars in sight - it was the sound of the river! It was a nice place to rest before we ventured on to the last half of the hike. The river was a little muddy with all the rain, but nothing that a little photo editing couldn't take care of!




After we left the bluffs, we kept running into nice little picture-esque places for me to stop and play with my camera.








The fall colors were brilliant and we were happy we got up so early to take advantage of the morning sunlight.

If you're looking for a nice hike one day, check out the Savannah River Bluffs Heritage Preserve. The trail is nicely marked and is a great way to get a peek of the Savannah River!
