Pinehurst Greenway

town / neighborhoods

November, 2025 by dan.allen.50552

Trail is on and off road. It sometimes is on sandy along trail. Good walking not so much biking. Hard to follow signs from road.

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.

Emerald Necklace

Outsiders Not Welcome

November, 2025 by bjmcgowin

This trail the was nice but clearly intended for residents only. Businesses around it with signage stating “not trail parking.” Little to no parking access for non residents. Construction on trail but detours from the trail side are poorly marked but seem to be well marked in the residential areas surrounding. Trail is really several trails with one area not accessible to the other. Not sure why it is listed as “a” trail. Should be two. If you can access it you will enjoy it but good luck. We tried multiple points and spoke to people on it that did not have any good recommendations.

Nice evening riding spot ¿¿¿¿¿

Salem Lake Trail

My wife and I had fun. Beautiful scenery and wildlife! Our first trail, so our butts are a little sore. 7 miles is a good starting trail length.

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.

Ecusta Trail

Great bike ride Hendersonville!

October, 2025 by symptom07.trialed

Started at the Hendersonville visitor center and headed out. Fill your water bottles and use the restrooms at this really nice visitor center! Very well marked trail with lots of safe crossings for the roads! Super wide super smooth asphalt so no issues bypassing pedestrians and other cyclists! Rode all the way to the end and found a pumpkin patch! Since we were on our bikes, I only purchased five small ones for two dollars each! We also stopped by the farm stand trail side, and got some of the best Golden delicious apples we’ve ever had! Beautiful rail trail……kudos to Hendersonville because there were 1000 people using it on this stunning Saturday! It has a brewery, playground, coffeehouse, Quik Mart, all on the side of the trail if you need anything. We really enjoyed the countryside! A winner for a Saturday early Fall bike ride!

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.
