Railroad Grade Road

Road still closed at the bridge so less traffic

April, 2025 by jadams9

I’ve ridden this twice since Helene. Once last Fall and then again in March 2025. There isn’t much traffic since the road is closed at the bridge — which is about half way. Bikes can cross the bridge and ride around the road damage past the bridge. It would be 5 stars for scenery if it weren’t for the fact there are still cars — just fewer than normal. Helene was such a devastating storm. ¿¿Appalachia Strong!

Little Sugar Creek Greenway

3184 Gilroy Dr, Fort Mill, SC 29707 access and parking

March, 2025 by mbham704

The access and parking is still blocked off to outside visitors leaving nowhere to park without the risk of being towed. This seems wrong for an open greenway.

Little Sugar Creek Greenway

Nice easy walking. Public access blocked off!

February, 2025 by smc0747

The reason for the 2 stars: It states there is parking located at 3190 Gilroy Dr (Indian Land) but the housing development blocked off the parking area and put in picnic tables! How is this ok when it’s supposed to be publicly accessible??? I took a pic, but I’m uncle to load it for the review.

Long Branch Trail (NC)

beautiful downtown area

January, 2025 by bernsteinlm

Easy walk. Great landscape. Beautiful

Little Sugar Creek Greenway

Clean, well kept, and paved the entire way. The trail is well marked; however, there was construction so we had to go around certain areas. Me and a friend ran the entire trail and it was beautiful.

McDowell Creek Greenway

Secluded Suburban Trail

November, 2024 by maryepalermo

Saturday afternoon ride on a bright November day. Surprisingly limited number of cyclists, walkers, runners, & strollers. Entered at Birkdale Village Trailhead. Congested area. Suggest trying Catawba Road instead. Shaded trail with elevation changes and some crossings.

New River Trail State Park

Late Fall Ride

November, 2024 by rcwolf64

Accessed trail at Booker Falls. Great ride with beautiful views of the New River. Saw several deer and interesting to see the damage from the hurricane.

Caldwell Station Creek Greenway

Great trail. still not complete

November, 2024 by v.londhe

I rode my bike on this trail last weekend. It was beautiful with the fall trees..there los a small in complete section. But otherwise it is a great greenway. The leaves were turning and so it looked beautiful!

Little Sugar Creek Greenway

wonderful!

October, 2024 by simonsays60

We started at freedom Park to go south towards South Carolina. There are detour signs as you leave the park that are hard to find. Once you get on the trail along the river, it is smooth sailing with no stops.

High Point Greenway Trail

Nice trail for casual bikers

October, 2024 by wmclarin

Beautiful paved trail, nicely maintained, especially at the western end. Nice bridges and scenery through the swamps. Nice view of High Point University at the Western end, even with the security fences on all sides.

Bicentennial Greenway

Nice trail – for biking at low speeds

October, 2024 by wmclarin

Just rode the whole trail. Trail is fully paved, goes through some really pretty wooded areas. It’s hilly, and the pavement is full of bumps caused by tree roots. Fine for casual bikers, not great for high-speed road bikers. There is a stairway towards the southern end that does accommodate bikes. But it’s nicely done and well maintained.

Muddy Creek Greenway
