People complaining about sand, that gives you more exercise. I did not think the sand was bad at all. I did the walk from Reservoir park to NIcks creek. Nice little hike
The course for the parts I could find. Unfortunately after the first half mile there weren't markers so difficult to follow
It was a nice mix of hills and flat ground. Not strenuous at all. It is dog friendly but they might not be willing to cross the suspension bridge. It was definitely popular when we went on a Sunday. You can access the creek along the trail of you want to play in the water.
We parked at the city park as suggested, rode south to Main St then doubled back and along US 52 to Salisbury Ave (using the wide paved path made, bumpy by tree roots). After crossing the train tracks we explored and went north across Salisbury to the end of the greenway. This section is not on the trail map since it is very difficult (the gravel is loose so we parked and walked much of that section). Turning south from Salisbury is the best part of the ride as it's an old rail bed and is well paved. Near the middle of that leg is the Glenn St parking, accessed by a walking ramp.
Love the diverse topography of this trail! My lab and I love exploring along the creek and in the fall, the color is full of yellows, oranges, browns and some beautiful reds! Also a nice mix up of easy and moderate hiking.
This trail was moderate in difficulty but the scenery was very nice. The best part was that there was not a lot of people here and the suspension bridge was an added bonus
Terrible trail for riding bikes or even walking. The trail is getting wider in spots as people try to find a way around the deep sand. It does provide a connection to the nice Forest Creek Trail and Reservoir Loop Trail.
We rode from southern pine and connected with 2 other trails there are maps at the trailhead We rode two of the three connectors. The third connector is a paved road that goes around the third lake? Our two loops was 13 miles. Hilly and patches of deep sand. Great ride!
Had a great experience, complete with a bicycle tool and air station as well!
Nice, easy walk through the woods on a fairly level (slight uphill grade) old rail bed with a fine gravel surface. Trail leaves out of Rock Springs Park where there is plenty of parking with street lights (in case it gets late). Trail is not well marked, but just push on ahead through the maintenance area and past the 2 closed vehicle gates. Trail has some benches and distance markers. Trail length is approximately
a mile one way.
I live near this Greenway and use it regularly. It is a mostly gravel trail with some sandy sections and even a few paved areas. Some nice board walks and bridges are used in the wetter areas. There are at least two kiosk maps now but it can still be confusing when the trail nears the central villiage.
You can find water at the Rassie Wicker Park. The nearby town of Southern Pines has a nice Greenway system too.
