About Bicentennial Greenway
Distance: 14.5 Miles
The Bicentennial Greenway combines off-road asphalt and sidewalks that run through residential neighborhoods, pine and hardwood forests, parks, and more. It connects to both shopping areas and schools. It’s open to non-motorized usage, and birding is an exciting activity on the greenway, especially around the Piedmont Environmental Center at the greenway’s southern end. The trail links up with the Atlantic & Yadkin Greenway at its northern end. The greenway is still being improved. When complete, the Bicentennial will provide an almost 20-mile greenway that connects the City of High Point to the City of Greensboro.
