Hop off your cozy couch and join Friends of Lower Haw for a First Day Hike. Get your body moving and the New Year’s Resolutions started! This hike is free and open to the public with no registration required. We will be hiking a section of the Lower Haw River State Natural Area located by the Haw River off US 15-501 upstream of the Bynum Dam, known as the “Pegg Tract”. Learn about the trail project improvements planned for this area that will provide a sustainably designed land trail with pedestrian bridge over Miles Branch, a sustainably designed paddle launch and boardwalk leading to the launch. Dress in layers for the weather and wear sturdy shoes for walking on uneven ground. All ages are welcome, children must be accompanied by an adult. Pets are welcome but must be on leash at all times. There are no restroom facilities at this location.
Directions: Meet in the large parking lot on US 15-501 at the Haw River between Chapel Hill and Pittsboro. If headed south on US 15-501 from Chapel Hill, the parking lot is on the right before crossing the Haw River. If headed north on US 15-501 from Pittsboro, make a U-turn after crossing the Haw River, then head south on US 15-501 and the parking lot will be a short distance on the right.
