Morrow Mountain

Campground was quiet and campsites we're far enough apart. No water at sites though. Hiking trails and boat rental available but no other activities unless you have your own horse. Dump station water hose could not be used to rinse tank as a hose could not be attached to it. It wasn't long enough to reach the rinse port either. One nice amenity was the camp hosts delivered fire wood direct to our site.

As a British man, we hardly have trails like this in England! And wow what a beautiful hiking trail to experience! Definitely recommend walking up the mountain for the experience rather than just driving up for the view. It's worth the walk! Seeing all the beauty that covers the mountain, the streams, different trees and the wildlife! Luckily the trees provide plenty of shade so you've not got to worry about sunburn

I found this hike on the way to a Hornets game in Charlotte. It was a nice way to take a break during the drive and decompress. I wish I would've allowed myself more time but enjoyed the one hour hike I took. There is some road construction going on near the park so I ended up having to make my way to a different entrance than the one Google Maps took me to. Once I was on the park road it was easy to get to the trail heads. I took a mix of the Morrow Mountain and Backpack Trails. Their entrances were near the museum and office parking lot. They were easy going and there was some snow on the ground still so there were some beautiful views. Not too many hills. If I would have had more time I would have found the trail to the summit and took it for the big views but was running out of daylight. The park closes at 7 so I wanted to make sure I made it out in time. It was fun hiking if you ever get close and I'll try to get back some day and give myself more time.

A Beautiful Park, just a little over an hour away from Charlotte, NC. Great Park for a quick getaway for some peace, quiet and a refueling of one's own cup. The top of the mountain offers up some tremendous views and ample trails to suit any level of Trail walker. The Bathrooms are kept incredibly clean. Toward the bottom of the mountain you'll find a public boat ramp and if your like Me and don't have your own, they have Canoe rentals and a small assortment of snacks. Check in advance for seasonal operation. Remember to Thank those that keep the Park running clean, safe and smooth. There is a wonderful floating pier to fish off of or to just watch the Canoers fight the wind to get back to the rental pier. There is a lot of BBQ spots to bring your own supplies and cook up a feast. I hope this information is helpful to others in finding a nice place to enjoy a peaceful rest.
