Who knew that there was a 700 acre park in the Charlotte city limits? I've been to Reedy Creek Park for the third time in 2 months and its quickly becoming my nature getaway in the city. According to the Parks & Rec website, there are over 10 miles of walking trails. Most of which is under a lush green canopy of trees. Gorgeous!
While bikes are allowed, there are ominous signs preventing bikes from most smaller trails. Given the size of the park, it might be wise to bike to destinations (like the 2 ponds, volleyball courts, and picnic shelters) and park your ride. Many of the trails are poorly marked, so I ended taking a three hour tour of the park. It might be helpful to get a map before you get started. Other than that, I wish you "Happy Trails"!
