Overview
Join us for a refreshing morning walk, led by Queen LaTrisha, through the picturesque Mallard Creek Greenway, a scenic pathway that offers a perfect blend of nature and community. Experience the beauty of Charlotte's outdoors while engaging with fellow participants who share a passion for sisterhood, wellness, and nature.
Event Details
The eastern end of the trail (201 E Mallard Creek Church Rd) is accessible from Kirk Farm Park (210 E Mallard Creek Church Rd). Meandering west through a floodplain forest, the greenway connects to the Toby Creek Greenway, which heads south 2.64 miles to W Rocky River Road and provides a link to the University City South neighborhood—home to the UNCC Botanical Gardens and the University of North Carolina's Charlotte campus.
