Hop off your cozy couch and join Friends of Lower Haw for a First Day Outdoors hike on Sunday January 1, 2023 from 12:00 Noon to 1:00 PM. Get your body moving and the New Year's resolutions started!

We will be hiking a beautiful section of the Lower Haw River State Natural Area located off US 15-501 upstream of the Bynum Dam. This is a relatively easy loop hike of about 1 mile. Dress in layers for the weather and wear sturdy shoes. All ages are welcome. Pets are welcome but must be on leash at all times. Please note there are no restroom facilities at this location. This hike is free and open to the public with no registration required.
 
Meet in the large parking lot on US 15-501 at the Haw River between Chapel Hill and Pittsboro. If headed south on US 15-501 from Chapel Hill, the parking lot is on the right before crossing the Haw River. If headed north on US 15-501 from Pittsboro, make a U-turn after crossing the Haw River then head south on US 15-501 and the parking lot will be a short distance on the right.
