노스 캐롤라이나 최고의 그래블 라이딩 코스

This is a super good recreation trail built along an abandoned tobacco railway line. Hence it is aptly named the American Tobacco Trail. It's a 22.6-mile long Rails-to-Trails project that crosses through Durham County, Chatham County, and Wake County. It has a variety of facilities and connector trailheads along the way. Riders routinely ride the entire length of the ATT with a road bike. Gatorskin tires will hold up very well. Especially so if you have 28-32mm tires on. Watch out for runners and other trail users!

Bent Creek Experimental Forest contains a variety of rides, from family-friendly after-dinner outings to epic, multi-day bikepacking link-ups with other trails in Pisgah National Forest. For the most part you'll be riding in the trees, but every so often you get a pretty decent mountain view, too.

The Pisgah Ranger Station is both the administrative hub for the Pisgah Ranger District and a visitor center with interpretive exhibits, maps, and a gift shop. The visitor center is open year round.

Davidson River marks the southern start of the Art Loeb Trail. It’s a good spot to filter water before the climb ahead. Expect a gradual but steady ascent as you leave the valley and head into the forested hills. This is a popular fly-fishing spot with crystal-clear waters and abundant trout, including brown, brook, and rainbow.

The Reedy Creek Multiuse Trail is a paved path that winds through Raleigh’s William B. Umstead State Park. The trail connects with other greenways and is surrounded by forest, rolling hills, and occasional wildlife sightings.

This trailhead sits along Lake Crabtree at the north end of Black Creek Greenway. There is ample parking, restrooms, water, and a bike station, making it an ideal spot to start your ride or take a break and enjoy the beautiful view.
