I recently moved to Charlotte and I'm looking for some good paved trails to rollerblade on (yes, I realize I am a total weirdo for still owning inline skates). I have tried out 2 greenways so far, but I was frankly unimpressed as they were short, and difficult to follow.
Does anyone know of a paved, easy to follow (doesn't go through a residential area) trail that is at least 5 miles long and would be suitable for rollerblading?
Mallard Creek Greenway in the University area is well longer than 5 miles and mostly paved, but there is a gravel stretch in the middle. The Four-Mile Creek Greenway in South Charlotte is 5.8 miles I believe from Piper Glen to the parking lot at 51 and Johnston and paved the whole way.
Four mile creek is a great option. A very nice greenway which is pavement and boardwalk. The boardwalk shouldn't be too much of an issue for your skates, the boards are really close together.
