The Town of Cary has historically supported and developed opportunities for all pedestrians the use of its parks and surroundings. Within its parks, there are numerous miles of natural walking trails established by the community. Complimenting these trails within the parks is a system of greenways that Cary continues to develop and nurture for future growth and enjoyment.

A greenway is a linear parcel of land set aside to preserve open space. They are generally located in floodplain areas or along wooded streams corridors that are unsuitable for development. Often these corridors that harbor Cary’s greenway trails provide access to these pristine areas that would have otherwise been lost. Since 1980, the Town of Cary has been building greenways to bring open spaces within easy walking distance of our homes. Greenways are an environmental, economic, and recreational resource for all to enjoy.

Town of Cary greenways and trails are open from sunrise to sunset. For some of those greenways located outside of parks, the Town of Cary does not provide off-street parking for all of its trails. Keep in mind when trying to locate a greenway trail that parking is not always provided and parking off streets is required to access many trails. The Town of Cary asks that you be considerate of private property nearby when parking.

The Greenways have been developed by Raleigh and Cary to enhance the lives of the residents in many ways by providing a recreational amenity for walking, jogging and bicycling in a natural setting remote from traffic. They also serve to preserve pristine open space to enhance Cary’s quality of life while linking the neighborhoods with parks, schools, community centers, and other neighborhoods. In addition, these greenways help control storm water runoff, curb erosion, and minimize flooding which can damage your property as it improves Cary’s water quality by buffering streams, filtering pollutants, and recharging the groundwater. Added to all of these, it adds value to your property by merit of its proximity.

If you have any questions about the Cary Greenways and trails, you can contact the Town of Cary at 919-469-4601 or visit their website at www.townofcary.org.
