I have a possible job opportunity in Central North Carolina, and having been around East Tennessee mountains, I am wondering what the NC Piedmont and surrounding areas have to offer for hikes and camping.
I am only aware of the MST is being routed from Pilot Mountain down to Falls Lake. Are there any good overnight trails in the area, or what NC state parks are other exploring? I see there is Uwharrie and Croatan National Forests, what type of trails or camping do they have?
