The Nantahala National Forest lies in the mountain and valleys of southwestern North Carolina. The largest of North Carolina's four National Forests, the Nantahala encompasses 531,148 acres with elevations ranging from 5,800 feet at Lone Bald in Jackson County to 1,200 feet in Cherokee County along Hiwassee River. The Forest is divided into three Districts, Cheoah in Robbinsville, NC, Tusquitee in Murphy, NC, and the Nantahala in Franklin, NC. All district names come from the Cherokee language. "Nantahala" is a Cherokee word meaning "land of the noon day sun," a fitting name for the Nantahala Gorge, where the sun only reaches to the valley floor at midday.The Nantahala National Forest was established in 1920 under authority of the 1911 Weeks Act. This act provided authority to acquire lands for national forests to protect watersheds, to provide timber, and to regulate the flow of navigable streams. In the Nantahala National Forest, visitors enjoy a wide variety of recreational activities from whitewater rafting to camping. With over 600 miles of trails, opportunities exist for hikers, mountain bikers, horse-back riders and off-highway vehicle riders.</p> <h3> Camping and Day-use Information</h3> <p> Enjoy camping or a picnic at one of the many day-use areas.

Whiteoak Trail travels through beautiful hardwood forests, and in the winter provides beautiful views of the Baxter Cliffs.</p></div> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 75px"> <a href ="/recarea/nfsnc/recreation/hiking/recarea/?recid=48570&actid=50">Fork Ridge TR 285</a> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 75px"> <a href ="/recarea/nfsnc/recreation/hiking/recarea/?recid=48572&actid=50">Green Ridge TR 287</a> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 75px"> <a href ="/recarea/nfsnc/recreation/hiking/recarea/?recid=48574&actid=50">Hickey Fork TR 292</a> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 75px"> <a href ="/recarea/nfsnc/recreation/hiking/recarea/?recid=48576&actid=50">Jerry Miller TR 286</a> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 75px"> <a href ="/recarea/nfsnc/recreation/hiking/recarea/?recid=48578&actid=50">White Oak TR 293</a> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 50px"> <a href ="/recarea/nfsnc/recreation/hiking/recarea/?recid=48616&actid=50">Special Day-Use Areas</a> <span onclick="raalp_toggledesc(this,'RAALP_48616')" style="font-size:xx-small;cursor:pointer;float:right;"><img src="/wps/PA_Recreation/images/plus.gif" alt="area description" /></span> <div id="RAALP_48616" style="margin:0 0 0 50px; display:none"><p> <a href="http://www.cs.unca.edu/nfsnc/recreation/connections/pisgah_day_use.pdf">http://www.cs.unca.edu/nfsnc/recreation/connections/pisgah_day_use.pdf</a></p></div> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 75px"> <a href ="/recarea/nfsnc/recreation/hiking/recarea/?recid=48620&actid=50">Max Patch</a> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 75px"> <a href ="/recarea/nfsnc/recreation/hiking/recarea/?recid=48622&actid=50">Murray Branch Picnic Area</a> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 75px"> <a href ="/recarea/nfsnc/recreation/hiking/recarea/?recid=48626&actid=50">Roan Mountain</a> <span onclick="raalp_toggledesc(this,'RAALP_48626')" style="font-size:xx-small;cursor:pointer;float:right;"><img src="/wps/PA_Recreation/images/plus.gif" alt="area description" /></span> <div id="RAALP_48626" style="margin:0 0 0 75px; display:none"><p> Famous for its spectacular natural gardens of Catawba rhododendrons, Roan Mountain shelters a rich diversity of life, from spruce-fir forests to vast grassy balds.</p> <p> Roan Mountain is actually not one mountain, but a high ridge about 5 miles long. It ranges from a height of 6,286 feet at Roan High Knob to a low of 5,500 feet at Carver’s Gap. No one knows the origin of the mountain’s name. Some claim the name refers to the roan or reddish color of the mountain when rhododendrons bloom in June or the mountain ash berries appear in September. Others say the name comes from Daniel Boone’s roan horse, because he and his horse were frequent visitors.</p> <p> <a href="/Internet/FSE_DOCUMENTS/stelprdb5366102.pdf">Check out the brochure.</a></p></div> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 100px"> <a href ="/recarea/nfsnc/recreation/hiking/recarea/?recid=48630&actid=50">Cloudland TR 1000</a> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 100px"> <a href ="/recarea/nfsnc/recreation/hiking/recarea/?recid=48628&actid=50">Roan Mountain Garden TR 1002</a> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 75px"> <a href ="/recarea/nfsnc/recreation/hiking/recarea/?recid=48632&actid=50">Rocky Bluff Picnic Area</a> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 25px"> <a href ="/recarea/nfsnc/recreation/hiking/recarea/?recid=48954&actid=50">Grandfather Ranger District</a> <span onclick="raalp_toggledesc(this,'RAALP_48954')" style="font-size:xx-small;cursor:pointer;float:right;"><img src="/wps/PA_Recreation/images/plus.gif" alt="area description" /></span> <div id="RAALP_48954" style="margin:0 0 0 25px; display:none"><p> The lands that make up the Grandfather Ranger District are those public lands that run from the McDowell/Buncombe county line on Black Mountain just east of Asheville over to US 321 between Lenoir and Blowing Rock.

display:none"><p> The Birkhead Mountains Wilderness was established by the 1984 North Carolina Wilderness Act. The goals are to protect and preserve its natural resources and wilderness character and provide for public use. The Wilderness includes 5,160 acres at the northern end of the Uwharrie Mountains.</p> <p> These mountains are considered to be the oldest on the North American Continent. Evidence of early Indians dates back over 12,000 years. The Catawba Indians  inhabited the area when the Europeans began exploring the region in the late 1600’s. By 1760 settlement had begun in earnest, opened up by the explorers and traders along the Ocaneechi Trail.</p> <p> The Birkhead family raised a son, John Watson (Watt), who was born in 1858. The 3,000 acres that he acquired over the years were made up of many small tenant farms. Thus the mountain range became known locally as the Birkhead Mountains.</p> <p> This old plantation is the core of the Wilderness. Remember, as you use the Wilderness, your challenge is to leave no trace of your passing. This will protect and preserve the area as true wilderness. Evidence of early Indians and settlers can often be found. These archeological and historic artifacts and sites hold clues to America's past. If disturbed , a part of our heritage is lost forever. Federal law protects such sites and artifacts on public land. If you discover such remains please leave them undisturbed.</p> <p> All trails within the Wilderness are designated hiking trails. Travel by horse, motorized vehicle or bicycle is prohibited. A detailed map of the Wilderness is available at the District Ranger’s Office.</p></div> </li> <li style="clear:both;margin:0 0 0 50px"> <a href

The Nantahala National Forest lies in the mountain and valleys of southwestern North Carolina. The largest of North Carolina's four National Forests, the Nantahala encompasses 531,148 acres with elevations ranging from 5,800 feet at Lone Bald in Jackson County to 1,200 feet in Cherokee County along Hiwassee River. The Forest is divided into three Districts, Cheoah in Robbinsville, NC, Tusquitee in Murphy, NC, and the Nantahala in Franklin, NC. All district names come from the Cherokee language. "Nantahala" is a Cherokee word meaning "land of the noon day sun," a fitting name for the Nantahala Gorge, where the sun only reaches to the valley floor at midday.The Nantahala National Forest was established in 1920 under authority of the 1911 Weeks Act. This act provided authority to acquire lands for national forests to protect watersheds, to provide timber, and to regulate the flow of navigable streams. In the Nantahala National Forest, visitors enjoy a wide variety of recreational activities from whitewater rafting to camping. With over 600 miles of trails, opportunities exist for hikers, mountain bikers, horse-back riders and off-highway vehicle riders.</p> <h3> Camping and Day-use Information</h3> <p> Enjoy camping or a picnic at one of the many day-use areas.

Both trails are open to bikers and hikers, but no motorized vehicles are allowed.</p> <h2>At a Glance</h2> <div class="tablecolor"> <table summary="this is the data table used for displaying Recreation Area At a Glance Information" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <!-- <tr style="border:0px solid #FFFFFF"><td> </td></tr> --> <tr class="odd" > <th scope="row">Fees</th> <td> No fee. </td> </tr> <tr > <th scope="row">Open Season:</th> <td>April 1 - Dec 1</td> </tr> <tr class="odd" > <th scope="row">Usage:</th> <td>Heavy</td> </tr> <tr > <th scope="row">Closest Towns:</th> <td>New Bern, Havelock</td> </tr> <tr class="odd" > <th scope="row">Water:</th> <td>Drinking Water</td> </tr> <tr > <th scope="row">Restroom:</th> <td>Full Bathhouse.</td> </tr> <tr class="odd" > <th scope="row">Operated By:</th> <td>USDA-Forest Service, Croatan National Forest</td> </tr> </table> </div> <h2>General Information</h2> <strong>Directions: </strong>(Locally called Flanners Beach.)

longleaf pine savannah and pocosin- shrubby bogs common to the Carolina coast.  Look for signs of those who walked this way before- from Native Americans to early settlers, woodsmen and moonshiners.</p> <p> The Neusiok Trail is part of the 900-mile Mountains-to-Sea Trail that begins in Great Smoky Mountains National Park and ends in Jockey Ridge State Park at the ocean.

It winds through an area referred to as Longleaf Pine Flat Woods, which is an open woodland of longleaf pines with low growing herbs and shrubs.

Island Creek Trail
Year round.
Light
USDA-Forest Service, Croatan National Forest
Hiking, Nature Viewing, Outdoor Learning
Island Creek Trail has long been a favorite place for nature study. To make this rich botanical area available for public enjoyment, the Trent Woods Garden Club of New Bern, cooperating with the U.S. Forest Service established this self guided half-mile Forest Walk in the spring of 1967. Planning and installing the numbered posts, and the matching interpretive information were done as an Eagle Scout project by James C. Simmons, Jr. of Scout Troop 67. the Croatan National Forest gratefully acknowledges this valuable assistance. This is a 1/2 mile trail which is perfect for an afternoon or morning hike. It shows you many different land shapes and variety of plants and trees that grow here and in other places like this. As you walk you will notice posts with numbers on them along the trail. These numbers match those in the pamphlet located in the box at the trailhead. Directions: Take US 70 south of New Bern and turn at the Burger King by Trent East Crossing Shopping Center. Go to the stop sign and take a left onto SR1004 and continue 7.5 miles. The trailhead is on the right.

Neuse River Trails
April 1 - Dec 1
Heavy
Drinking Water
Full Bathhouse.
USDA-Forest Service, Croatan National Forest
Bicycling, Hiking, Nature Viewing
Hike or bike around the Neuse River Campground. Stretch your legs on the mile-long paved trail that circles the campground.  You can also enjoy the two-mile dirt trail that crosses a lovely tupelo swamp by boardwalk and winds through the mixed pine-hardwood forest. Both trails are open to bikers and hikers, but no motorized vehicles are allowed. Directions: (Locally called Flanners Beach.) From New Bern, take US 70 East about 12 miles. About 2 miles south of the Croatan District office, turn left on SR 1107 and go 1.5 miles. Campground is signed on US 70 also.

Neusiok Trail
Year round.
Dogs must be kept on a leash at all times.
USDA-Forest Service, Croatan National Forest
Camping & Cabins, Hiking, Hunting, Nature Viewing
The Neusiok Trail winds more than 20 miles from a sandy beach on the Neuse River to a salt marsh on the Newport River. In between, the trail crosses cypress swamps, hardwood ridges, longleaf pine savannah and pocosin- shrubby bogs common to the Carolina coast.  Look for signs of those who walked this way before- from Native Americans to early settlers, woodsmen and moonshiners.
