Description

This is a really beautiful section of the Roanoke River Greenway that is easy and flat and is well used to connect to numerous areas of the Star City!

Along the way, it goes right by Black Dog Salvage (TV show Salvage Dogs), the Green Goat restaurant, Roanoke Mountain Adventures (outfitter, shuttles, bike rental), Blue Cow Ice Cream Shop, and the UnderDog Bike Shop!
