Formerly part of the Atlantic Coastline Railway, this Rail Trail is something special! The wide, paved track is a mile long and invites bikers, skaters, walkers, joggers and runners to enjoy this smooth path. Go ahead! Get out of the car and stretch! Try the whole path from the fountain on Washington Street (next to the railroad tracks) all the way to the Roanoke River. The path runs parallel to Main Street, so it's easy to take a little detour for a soda, sandwich, or even a little shopping. Park near the fountain, head for a beautiful boardwalk along the river, then back to your starting point and you will have added two miles to your day's excercise. Quick and easy! | |
