Sherman Branch Nature Preserve

A nice break from the city. The trails are great for hiking and mountain biking. The main trail would be a great place to train for trail runs. It was a hot summer day, but with all the shade it made for a cooler hike. There are port-a-pot restrooms at the parking area as well as a picnic table.

Great place for getting outside and communing with nature. The mountain bike trails are fun and exciting, and accessible for all levels (except for a few obstacles/challenges). I love taking family out for walks along the main trails. This is one of my favorite places in Charlotte. I feel blessed to live so close

I rode here for the first time with my 10yr old. It was great fun for both of us, this place has great trails for beginners and intermediate riders, some black diamond as well. The parking lot fills up on weekends but the place is so big that you usually feel like you're alone. Highly recommended, it's part of a 214 acre nature preserve.
