Tips from locals
This is a nearby walking/running trail that goes for miles. It's wide enough for a group of people and a great place to stretch your legs.
South Campus Rail Trail runs from a gravel parking lot at the end of Chucky Mullins Dr for about 3 miles to a gravel road near Thacker Mountain. Popular trail with walkers, cyclists and runners. No drinking water or toilet facilities. Mile markers every half mile.
Perfect place for a distance run, compressed dirt trail, flat and straight, very well shaded.
For a longer walk or run, the Whirlpool Trails can't be beat--a nice flat 3 mile trail through woods, with several paths into hillier terrain should you wish.
