Outdoors & nature
Rolling hills, winding paths, beautiful gardens, nature preserves, and hiking & biking trails not only make up the landscape surrounding the towns and university but also within. The Town of Chapel Hill provides over 17 miles of urban greenways and trails. A local favorite, the Riverwalk in downtown Hillsborough, follows alongside the Eno River. And within the community of Carrboro is a 55-acre park for a variety of leisure experiences. The North Carolina Botanical Garden invites visitors for a stroll through native plant display gardens. So, breathe deep, and let curiosity lead you down the open road to Chapel Hill & Orange County.
