Description

This is a simple gravel road that give access to Duke energy utility lines. It is crossed by many of the trails of western Carolina North Forest. The trail begins by the athletic fields of Chapel Hill High School and ends on Waterside Drive. This trail is more open and flatter than many of the trails and provides a nice way to loop together different trails.
