Thankful for a pedestrian friendly route on this side part of town, this route is more utilitarian than it is for sight seeing.
It took us awhile to find this: https://maps.app.goo.gl/3KoH7btKSEoZvdx78
Parking was easy. The trail has a modest slope at points. Some sections are elevated above the natural environment, boardwalk fashion. Well marked and well paved. Not overly crowded for such a nice trail in the evening. Highly recommended for walkers, runners and bikers. I look forward to doing it again when I travel here next. :-)
This was nirvana - great rtide starting at Ed Yerba park and connecting via the Cary Greenway to American Tobacco Trail - beautiful mural on the way to the trail as well - this was fantastic Jayant Bicyclists from Texas
I found it a bit squishy and bumpy for a hybrid. But just fine for a mountain bike.
It's so bumpy and jarring you cannot get a rhythm. Do not recommend
It would be a good trail for hybrid, gravel or trail bike, the parts assessable are maintained, but the majority of the trail is closed for repair. The sign says from hurricane Michael, which occurred in October 2018. So despite the claim of working diligently, I hold little hope of it being opened any time soon.
Had a Great Bike ride on the Black Creek Greenway. As a first timer, We weren't sure where to go, but figured it out pretty easily. Went around lake and just followed the trails in what ended up being a 10 mile ride. Went on a weekday and it wasn't too crowded, but I imagine it would be a bit busier on the weekends. Did cross 1 or 2 roads to follow the trails, and took several turns, but made it back without any issues at all. Paved trails and a couple of wooden bridges made for an easy ride. Restroom facilities available in parking lot and signs are posted along the route. Highly recommended.
Well-maintained and nice creek views. It is an urban/suburban trail but I found it very pleasant. Nice tree shade and lots of different scenery. Some nice wetlands too with bridges. Small bumps here and there but nothing that got on my nerves. Lots of opportunities to create loop rides using connecting trails, like the Neuse River Trail and House Creek Trail. Give it a try and I think you will like it, so long as you understand it is an urban/suburban trail and not a rural rail trail. Also --- Check Raleigh Greenways website to get a grip on construction alerts because the trail does cross under a bunch of roads and runs on top of underground sewer lines.
This trail has been on my “bucket list” and I finally got to ride it! Absolutely stunning early spring day for riding - sunshine and warmth. I started the trail at its head point - New Hill Olive which was well marked off the road. Lots of parking. Has a bathroom. The segway portion leading down to the trail is loose gravel and on the steep side - take note - wasn’t easy to bike on and I could see people taking spills here. From here, the trail is packed sand which I find more enjoyable to ride on as there aren’t root humps and bumps. New Hope Church Rd is a beautiful stop with bathrooms and water fountains. From there it turns into mixed use with asphalt and packed sand.
