White Pines Nature Preserve

Very hilly terrain and well manicured main trails. The river trail is quite slippery at this time of year. About a 220’ chain in elevation to get down to the bottom so be prepared for a workout getting back up.

Yet ANOTHER GREAT Triangle Land Conservancy property. I've hiked all of their preserves except one (that's on the agenda soon) and they are always great hikes with great scenery.

Easy access and parking. Well maintained and well marked trails. Beautiful trees, frogs, turtles and stunning river views. We only hiked a 2 mile loop but it took us down the Deep River. Walked along that way until the confluence of the Deep and Rocky Rivers. Then a nice hike back up to the parking area.

We will definitely be back to hike this one some more!

Really cool set of trails! Look forward to visiting again.

Multiple trail loops intersect with well marked blazes, so many different trail lengths are possible.

Very serene, low hiking traffic, short trails but if you go in a large circle connecting all the trails then it's a good 2.5 miles. Only problem is I couldn't find any bathrooms.

They have added a new parking area and additional trails, now totaling about 7-8 miles. Was a bit wet in places but with record rainfall the last year was not bad and will soon dry completely. TLC has done a nice job of keeping the land as natural looking as possible while establishing a trail system for for a variety of different uses. Looking forward to seeing the rhododendrons blooming in May and being able to get on the lower trails along Rocky River... Great to have these areas being preserved for future generations. Thanks to TLC and Chatham County, as well as all other interested persons who have made this and other nature preserves possible.
