The Eagle Spur Trail is located in Durham and leads along a pretty straight line to Jordan Lake. It passes beautiful wetlands and is a great location to spot reptiles, amphibians and various species of birds. Please be aware that you are hiking mostly through wetlands that are often flooded, so be prepared to get your feet wet.
