Haw River Trail, Haw River Paddle Trail
The Haw River Trail and Haw River Paddle Trail are side-by-side, multi-use land and water trails that traverses seventy miles between Haw River State Park and Jordan Lake State Recreation Area. The land trail intersects and sometimes follows the state's Mountain to Sea Trail, a long-distance trail that follows the route of early pioneers. The water trail is fairly shallow and even novice paddlers can navigate the waterway fairly easily. In colder winter weather, paddlers will want to stay warm and dry by wearing waterproof gear.
