  • 5/5 Jim S. 2 years ago on Google
    10 foot wide paved riparian trail, mostly in the shade, mostly along Lawrence Prong Branch which drains rainwater from an area bounded by Salem St, Apex Barbecue Rd, and Olive Chapel Rd. That creek intersects with Beaver Creek at the longest bridge on the trail near the trail beneath NC-540. Bridges are wooden, and there are bumps of up to an inch to get on/off the bridges. Town maintenance is good - debris are cleared promptly after major storms, the bridge wood is replaced as needed, and the pavement gets attention as needed.

    I grew up walking this Greenway so I know it like the back of my hand. Beautiful scenic Greenway with fountains and paved trails, perfect for walking/running/biking/skateboarding. Lots of pokestops.

    There is a parking lot of a decent size at the beginning. The greenway is rather shadowed, which is a plus when walking in the summer, although there are still parts that you need to walk under the direct sun. It goes very close to people's backyards sometimes, which feels weird, but I guess makes it a safer place to walk.

    This is a wonderful Greenway. My dog and I walk it daily. There are just a couple places that have water problems. So most days I have to either skip a section or get some wet feet. But for the most part, this is a great place to walk.

    I walk my dogs here daily. For that it is great. There are a few ponds where you may see a heron and can see turtles and fish. You might also see deer, hawks, copperheads (rare). There are stations where you can get bags to clean up after your dogs and dispose of the used bags. Most dog walkers are respectful and use these, but not all. The path is currently about two miles in length... so rather short. Rest rooms are at either end. No benches in between.

    Very bike friendly, enough room to pass people.

    Picturesque but too many periodic sewage odors.

    Nice trail to take a bike on for a leisurely ride. Easy access from parks at both ends of the trail. Paved trail is in pretty good condition, except for some bumpy spots in the middle and the flooded-out portion close to the I-540 overpass due to yesterday's heavy rain.

    Love the Greenway with all the deer and owls and hawks. Sometimes we see large turtles and snakes as well

    I love walk around this beautiful place… I breathe peace and life!

    Great place to go for walking. You start from Kelly park to Jaycee park. Long distance walk and great exercise for those who likes to walk.

  • 5/5 Jennifer C. 3 years ago on Google
    Very nice Greenway, well kept, lots of shade and a nice Creek to walk next to. If you're walking from Kelly Road Park towards Jay Cee park it's almost all uphill but it's a pretty gradual incline.

  • 5/5 Kris M. 3 years ago on Google
    The Greenway is a great community walk, biking and jogging path. At the moment there is some construction going on near Kelly Road (aka Castle) Park by the Apexbwatwr works group so access to the park directly from the Greenway is being blocked.

    Nice paved shaded greenway along Beaver Creek with a few wooden bridge/walkway sections. Mostly flat and not too crowded. Good for walks, runs, bike rides.

  • 5/5 Bridget B. 2 years ago on Google
    Very beautiful place to take the family. Go biking, walking or just to enjoy God's beautiful earth.

👍👍 I had the most wonderful experience at Mad Splatter for my daughter's 10th birthday. Allie, the manager, and her team went above and beyond to make it special.
