Whether planning a day trip to get away and break out of your normal routine, or something longer such as a weekend or more, a visit to Morrow Mountain State Park will deliver everything you need for an epic break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.
Centrally located and part of the Uwharrie National Forest, this underappreciated state park offers so many amenities and fun things to do, that you will need more than just a day to enjoy it all!
After breakfast and before lunch, take a hike. The trails range from a half mile to a little more than four miles and deliver scenic views regardless of which one you take.
Or just enjoy the expansive water views from the many trails, including the Three Rivers Nature Trail. It's a mere 0.8 mile long, but the views are out of the world.
And if you want to spend more than a day, a campground provides an ideal spot to park your gear while you explore the park. Prefer cabins? There are six rustic cabins here with all the charm you'll need for a perfect getaway!
Ready to start planning? Morrow Mountain State Park is located at 49104 Morrow Mountain Rd., Albemarle, NC 28001. Learn more from this page on the official website for North Carolina State Parks!
