The Haw River Trail is a long multi-use trail being built through the North Carolina Piedmont. The trail follows the path of the Haw River from Haw River State Park on the Rockingham/Guilford County line to Jordan Lake State Recreation Area. == Land trail == Surface trails for hiking, mountain biking, birdwatching, nature lovers, and horse riding are planned for the some or all of the Haw River Trail. For over a third of the stretch of the Haw River Trail, from Haw River State Park to the confluence with Cane Creek in Alamance County, it will combine with the North Carolina Mountains-to-Sea Trail (MST). The MST begins at Clingmans Dome on the State’s western border and terminates at Jockey's Ridge on the Outer Banks. The MST was recently re-routed to follow the Haw River, with the input of Alan de Hart and 30 others under the direction of State Trails Director Darrell MacBane. The land trail follows the Haw River across Alamance from where it enters near Altamahaw, then around Burlington and Graham, through Swepsonville, and past Saxapahaw. Currently, over of ground trail in locations including Haw River State Park, Swepsonville River Park, Jordan Lake State Recreation Area and the newly acquired Glencoe to Carolina Mill segment (Burlington). Swepsonville had the honor of being first trail segment designated. Mayor Herring received a call from the MST meeting participants, as they had just voted to reroute the trail through his town. He put in the first request for MST designation, and the town park became the first on the Haw River with a MST designation in 2008, with the help of the State Trails Coordinator, Darrell McBane. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Haw River Trail」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
