START: Falls of Neuse - Parking Lot
NOTE: We considered the Parking Lot to be starting point. It gives very limited space for parking but considering the gates are closing rather early, this is for sure a good spot to leave the car.
END: Raven Ridge Road
NOTE: Good spot to park available.
Very nice track, that leads first to the Falls Dam Visitor centre. Once here it is for sure worth taking the little extra mile to the dam and back. Especially in the afternoon during sunset it is a nice spot for a little barbecue.
Moving on from the visitor centre the track goes past the lake and gives a few nice ups and downs.
Very interesting is the lake around end of January, when hundreds of birds are stopping at the lake, chasing each other and diving into the lake to fish.
