While visiting our daughter in Raleigh, we took advantage of one of the Cycling Trails near Raleigh, the Neuse River Greenway. “Along the eastern outskirts of Raleigh, the Neuse River Trail follows the river for nearly 28 miles from Falls Lake Dam to the Wake/Johnston County line. There are several river crossings along the way, including two on suspension bridges. The scenic, tree-lined trail offers numerous wildlife viewing opportunities, especially on its boardwalks through wetland areas.”

We started our trip at Anderson Point Park, heading North first then retracing our route back to the park, and continuing south to the end of the trail, returning back to Anderson Point Park, for a total of almost 60 miles! Beautiful views along the way and varied vistas. 12/1/14
