Charlotte has more going for it than just business, location, pretty houses, and great people-it also has the Greenway Park System. Our very own Mecklenburg Parks service has created a fantastic free way to give you a bit of stress relief and exercise all in one! Charlotte's Greenway System is a stretch of real estate that runs alongside many streams and otherwise unbuildable sections of land. Keeping this area around, also serves our wildlife friends well. The Charlotte Greenway is constantly developing and works its way into Huntersville as well as Fort Mill!

Charlotte Mecklenburg Parks Greenway System

The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Greenway

Charlotte's Greenway Park trails are truly a fantastic part of our   County's Park system.

This is one of Charlotte's crown jewels.

The Greenway system wraps around the backside of Charlotte homes, as boardwalks and trails guide you through a thicket of wildlife, trees, swamp areas, small lakes, winding streams and plenty of wild life.

It rolls on for miles with multiple access points from various neighborhoods and designated parking areas.

Defined as linear parks, they also connect folks with offices, large park areas, schools and shopping centers.

Currently, the greenways offer over 30 miles of trails, with more trails being built every year.

We try to walk this every day...as do many, many others.

Every so often, we get a real treat. As was the case this past week, when we spotted five young deer. We stopped and stared...they stopped, and stared back.

They were within 20 feet of us. The deer continued grazing and nudging one another forward through the brush.

We went on our way.

It's a great little sighting when you live in the midst of suburbia.

So, if you ever have an opportunity, set some time aside to check out one of the many different trails provided to you by your tax dollars.

You should be able to find part of the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Greenway Park System near your home!

For those of you that don't live here...check out your own park services. It may be a very nice surprise!
