From Wilmington, NC. Take hwy 87 west to Elizabethtown NC. Take right on to E Broad Street, Old 87. Travel half mile, parking lot and trail entrance will be on left.
Rode it today. Definitely not beginner. At a min intermediate with some advanced technical features. Awesome trail, well maintained except for the pump track. Some of the climbs are pretty tough and the downhill sections are fast with good dirt and boardwalk berms.
| ThankGreat place to ride nice climbs sweet downhills 10.5 miles of pure fun
| ThankAnother good stop off of 95. Fast MTB trails.
| ThankBrown's Creek Nature Park is Growing. The trail is currently 7 miles and will soon will more than double. There will be over 10 miles when the new outer loop is complete.We have 3 more trails to build after this outer loop which will bring the total between 15 and 18 miles.
| ThankSuper Fun and well maintained
| ThankRode for the first time today, and had a blast. There were a couple of climbs to keep you honest and good flow.
| ThankGreat place! Surprising hill climbs. Road it last year, it was in better condition then. But between Matthew last fall 2016 and the rain we had last week. Just needs a little work to bring back to 5 stars!
| ThankCurrently closed, gates locked.
| Thankexcellent trail cant say enough good things
| ThankNice trail, definetly surprised me with the climbs being down east
| ThankExcellent challenge and a welcome surprise for a trail that is located in a usual flat area! Bring your knees with you and don't worry about your brakes this thing flows
| ThankThis trail is only just over a year old and is a blast to ride.Plenty of climbing and fast smooth flowing downhills.There are about 6.5 miles with plans for more trails on the future.
| ThankFrom the very beginning, you will not believe this trail is located in Southeast North Carolina. Where did these hills come from? Brown's Creek Nature Park has it all. Climbing, Downhills, XC, Switchbacks, Bridges, etc. There are no other trails east of I95 as challenging as this one. Great design, Great Ride.
| ThankClosest thing to the mountains you will get in the Wilmington area. Long climbs with some reward, tight turns on the downhill sections, some technical areas as well. Trail is compact but has made good use of the existing landscape. You almost forget you aren't in the mountains on some sections. Give it a try but be ready to climb.
| ThankNice ride with some good transitions and switch backs.
| ThankWe rode Browns Creek this morning and found it to be the most difficult course around the Wilmington area. I recommend that of you are not comfortable with Blue Clay Bike Park yet do not ride Browns Creek. Awesome ride.
| Thank
