Today, on a rare mild July Sunday, Skye, riding her hybrid bike, Cameron & Holly & myself, walking the pups Wyatt & Three, ventured out to enjoy a section of the Tobacco Trail just outside Apex.<\/p>\n
The trail is constructed over an old abandoned rail bed between New Hill & Durham.
Horses, walkers, dogs, and bikers are welcome.
It’s a shady sandy walkway, pleasantly, comfortably, wide enough for 3+ walkers side by side or two large horses. <\/p>\n
This afternoon we probably covered about 2 miles North (off Wimberly Road) and then back again (approximately 1 & 1\/2 hours), but the overall distance of the trail from end to end extends more than 22 miles.<\/p>\n
Along the way I ran into a sweet friend so that was an added treat:)<\/p>\n
I would certainly recommend this trail to any walker or biker or families biking with young kids. It is fairly rural so I would suggest exploring with a friend or two. Do bring water (and dogie bags if your dog friend is in tow) plus a cell phone in case of an emergency.<\/p>\n
So if you’re yearning to breathe in some fresh air and get some exercise, go explore one of our local ‘gems’, the American Tobacco Trail.
