Parking is available off of 12150 McManus Road, Midland, NC 2810. Before getting to the farmhouse, look for a Carolina Thread Trail sign and take a right down the gravel road to access the trailhead, where there are parking spaces.

Users can access Riverbend Farm Trail at the southern end of Riverbend Farm (down gravel road off of McManus Road). The trail heads toward the Rocky River and then follows the banks for 0.9 miles. The trail ends before a wooded area.

Riverbend Farm Trail provides gentle slopes that are ideal for hiking. Along the trail, there is also a canoe and kayak launch, providing paddlers access to the Rocky River. This launch is 4.5 miles downriver from the Pharr Family Preserve Trail and Canoe/Kayak Launch (located also in Midland).

Riverbend Farm is a pumpkin patch that operates during the month of October. Trail visitors will enjoy year-round access to the sights and sounds of an operational farm.
