Meredith College Greenway

The Meredith Greenway in Raleigh, North Carolina is part of the Capital Area Greenway System, specifically the Reedy Creek Trail. This trail runs through the campus of Meredith College, connecting it to the wider network of Raleigh's greenways.

The Reedy Creek Trail, which includes the Meredith Greenway section, spans approximately 5 miles from William B. Umstead State Park to the campus of Meredith College. It follows Reedy Creek Road and passes through the grounds of the North Carolina Museum of Art before reaching Meredith College.

This greenway offers a paved path that's ideal for various recreational activities such as walking, jogging, and biking. It provides an opportunity for students, faculty, staff, and the general public to enjoy outdoor exercise and nature within an urban setting.

The trail is part of a larger system that connects several key locations in Raleigh. It links to the Walnut Creek Greenway Trail and the Crabtree Creek Trail, allowing users to access a significant portion of the city via the greenway system.

Open from dawn to dusk daily, the Meredith Greenway offers a convenient outdoor space for the college community and local residents alike. It serves not only as a recreational facility but also as a potential alternative transportation route, aligning with one of the original goals of the greenway system to provide an alternative to automobiles for short commuter trips.
