Little Sugar Creek Greenway

Great Fall ride

November, 2025 by robertrollins28079

Wife, special needs adult son & I rode about 9-10 miles of the Briar Creek Trail on a gorgeous Fall Saturday. We accessed the trail on Park Drive in Pineville & rode north to the Park Road Shopping Center, where we exited & had a good lunch at The Flying Biscuit. Trail is in great condition & was moderately crowded on this Saturday, but not so much as too feel unrideable. Good combination of cyclists, joggers, & dog walkers. This trail is a jewel for the entire Charlotte area. Look forward to riding more.

Campbell Creek Greenway

McAlpine Connection

October, 2025 by jasonhappe

South of the parking area is the Alpine Greenway. And appears to be at least another 4 miles of additional Greenway.

Campbell Creek Greenway

Distance and Extention

October, 2025 by jasonhappe

From the parking area north up to Lock Mount Drive is approximately 1.8 miles each way. The Greenway also goes south for additional mileage.

Briar Creek Greenway

School Section

October, 2025 by jasonhappe

The section by the schools has no good parking. The greenway is not contiguous between the schools section and the Museum section at this time.

Briar Creek Greenway

Much Longer than the map shows

October, 2025 by jasonhappe

This needs to be updated. It now goes up and past the Mint Museum.

Little Sugar Creek Greenway

Great Greenway trails with plenty opportunity to check out different city scape areas. Easy on/off for places to eat etc. Not too busy mid week riding. Would definitely ride it again.

Four Mile Creek Greenway (Town of Matthews)

The 4 mile Greenway

September, 2025 by 2nj6w6z6vf

It’s a good trail to ride bikes and electric scooters and walk.

Torrence Creek Greenway

bumpy

July, 2025 by jeffdeitrick60

It’s an okay path. Bicycling it’s quite bumpy. Bumpiest greenway of all the trails I’ve been on in the county.

Clark's Creek Greenway

Trail starts at the nearby school, has a park with swings for kids at the trail head. Paved, nicely maintained.

Three Rivers Greenway

Great trails, but not connected

July, 2025 by jcax120

I live in the area, and frequently walk all of these trails. They are excellent. They're not all connected currently. Due to construction, some sections are closed. The West Columbia section is closed for the next six months. Part of the Riverfront Park is closed too. Your best bet if you're looking for distance is Candi Lane or the Timmerman Trail located at Dominion Energy. You can get around 11.5 miles round trip from the Timmerman Trail to Blossom Steet and back. Candi Lane is 6.8ish miles round trip. The Timmerman Trail is mostly shaded as is Candi Lane. The Riverfront Park, not so much.
