First time I walked here was January 18th. I was killing sometime getting something done to my car. There were not to many people walking on the trail which was kinda nice. I will probably comeback and check it out one day when it is warmer and explore some more.I walked the section off Monroe road up to Sardis

excellent area, however make sure you’re not alone walking if you plan on going onto some of the more isolated trails. try to make sure you’re always accompanied by at least one person or a dog, as some of the areas can get shady. overall, it’s very beautiful and scenic

I really like McAlpine Creek Greenway for the walking that i try to do three times a week. If you walk from the Sardis Road parking lot alll the way around and back, you will walk 5.5 miles which is just right for this old bird. Almost the

  • Mikhail Rybin

About four miles long. Paved, easy to walk, run, bike. Dog friendly. There is plenty of wildlife to see. Mostly deer, rabbits, birds, and an occasional rat snake. Don't let this dissuade you, though. It's a great greenway with plenty to

  • Jacob Mata

I only have good things to say about this Greenway, it has nice flat paved walking and biking and then you get to a beautiful park with a pond and ducks and fishing options. There is also a stage and areas to cookout. Then the Greenway

  • Timothy Gosey

Great trail. Easy to walk or ride a bike. If walking, probably don't plan to do it all in one day; very long. From the McAlpine Creek entry there is also a huge dog park, cross country trail, and a fishing pond. If you plan to fish,

  • Candice Gittens

This place was great! I wanted to get back into hiking and working out my pups but I needed something easy. This was definitely what I would call easy. The main path is straight and even and then there are multiple paths to other

  • Jen Harris

This is my favorite hiking path in the area. Several paths grow from the main one with differing levels of difficulty. Both parks that connect to the greenway are open and welcoming spaces. Definitely recommend.

  • Sharon McNeil

This greenway connects with others to make a 13 mole round trip. Great for bike rides, jogging and walking. There are water fountains at a few of the trailhead parking lots to refill your water bottle.

  • Donald Jenkins

This entry into McAlpine Creek Greenway has parking for 20 cars. It is a good place to start a walk or run on the Greenway. It has one poke' stop. It does have good wheelchair access.

  • Matthew Wyche

Beautiful and safe place to walk, run, or ride your bike. Really good area of Charlotte. I frequest the trail and never see any issues. Very nice for some exercise or to just relax.

  • Fred Call

Possibly the best rollerskiing path in NC. There was just one underpass where stormwater had deposited muddy debris across the trail, but that's a good test of agility. …

  • Matthew Kucharski

Nice trail. Gets busy on weekends when weather is nice. Need a few more trash cans along the way. People litter less if you provide a place to deposit their garbage.

  • Andy D

Very nice and green trail with lots of natural feeling. You will feel that you are in middle of jungle. If yo are lucky you might see deer while on trail. More

  • Hunt Blatz

Nice walking trail with good bathrooms and several rangers. There were many croaking frogs in the wetlands this late February but we couldn't see any of them.

  • Kirk MacDonald

Lots of wide, paved Trailway, with branches of packed gravel. One very wooded offshoot goes to Boyce Park. Lengthy trail with very little elevation change.

  • Andrew Crafts

Nice walking and biking path for the whole family. A small pond, picnic benches, fresh water for the pets and best of all.... it's clean and never crowded.

lovely place honestly a great morning walk place, got lost for a bit but i didnt mind it and we had to go back at some point so i cant wait to be back

  • Larry Curry

It has trails for running or walking that goes through the woods. I call it nature trails. It also has paved trails for biking around 8 miles. Nice

  • Carniely Chernozubov

Very nice trail for longboarding and biking as it is paved and well maintained. It leads to a big park with opportunities to enjoy more activities.

  • A C

The trails are a combination of pavement, dirt and gravel. Routes are clearly defined with markers. Nice, relaxing place to run, walk, and bike.

  • Mary-ann Howell

Great place if you live in the neighborhood. Only parking for 2-4 cars so wouldn't recommend if you want to drive here to start your hike.

  • MoBess Captures

Busy little nature area... One of the spots in the Greenway I haven't visited or heard much about!! Going back soon... More

  • Bill Riggs

This is a very pleasant greenway. The trail is quite flat, which I like. The recent renovations have made it even nicer.

  • Dennis Charolle

Beautiful paved trail through some gorgeous views. Started longboarding there and it was absolutely spectacular. More

  • Randy Chittenden

The only reason I can't give it 5 stars is because it's not really safe after dark. Very well maintained.

  • Robert Davis

Nice bike ride. Wish it was longer or tied into another trail
