Briar Creek Greenway will one day stretch 6 miles through Charlotte and connect to the Little Sugar Creek Greenway. Currently, the trail is open in two disconnected segments totaling 1.4 miles.
The shorter, northern section runs about a half mile between the Merry Oaks and Plaza Midwood neighborhoods. Mid-way, you find a pedestrian bridge over a wooded creek. Further south, another mile of trail flanks the west side of Myers Park High School.
For the northern segment: On-street parking is available on Masonic Drive.
For the southern segment: When school is not in session, parking is available at Alexander Graham Middle School (2206 Runneymede Lane).
I’m glad it’s there it’s a nice link from Merry Oaks to the Country club neighborhood which we love riding bikes in. It’s definitely the smallest greenway I’ve ever seen though:
