Thermal Belt Rail Trail

Great Trail!

July, 2026 by happyrcsmiles

We visited Biltmore yesterday, stayed the night in Asheville, then drove nearly an hour to this trail and glad we did. The trail is well maintained with clear markings. Only a few small areas were raised or bumpy and those were clearly marked with bright red spray paint. We wish all paved trails were in this good of condition! Rene’ and Greg

Trail open entire route

Trail goes from Smithfield Recreation and Aquatic center to Park on S2nd st. About 5 miles through mostly wooed area. Paved the entire way. Parking at both ends of trail. Nice short ride or walk.

Louisburg Bike Trail

Trail pavement needs maintenance

June, 2026 by jerry.gentle1

This is a nice short trail that runs through the town of Louisburg, however, it needs repairs to the asphalt to minimize long term degradation

Elkin & Alleghany Rail-Trail

E&A Rail Trail: Small Trail, Big Charm

June, 2026 by aswheele

A delightful, albeit short, trail in Elkin, NC.

We stopped to check out this trail on our way south after riding the longer New River Trail State Park rail trail, and we're glad we did. Even though it is only 1.8 miles long (3.6 miles round trip), it was a fun ride featuring a dam, two bridges, two underpasses, and excellent interpretive signage.

The trail surface is more sandy than crushed stone, with a few gentle inclines. There is plenty of parking, although a few additional restroom facilities would be a welcome addition. Be sure to bring your own water; if there were any drinking fountains, I didn't see them.

Even on a Thursday morning, the trail was busy with walkers and dog owners enjoying the beautiful surroundings. While this is not a trail I would drive a long distance specifically to ride, it makes an excellent stop when traveling to or from one of the area's longer trail systems.

The trail currently comes to an abrupt end, and I hope it is extended someday. For those seeking a little more adventure, there is a mountain bike trail branching off the main route, along with at least one hiking trail.

I highly recommend this trail if you're in the area. It would have earned five stars from me if it had been a bit longer.


Southeast Greenway

Thankful for a pedestrian friendly route on this side part of town, this route is more utilitarian than it is for sight seeing.

Love this little trail, especially after riding it for several weeks. Main ride is paved but several off shoots aren’t. Zero complaints!
