Donate today to help us build 4 miles of new mountain bike trail in Morganton at Catawba Meadows park!

Foothills Conservancy is partnered with Overmountain Cycles, the City of Morganton and Black Diamond Trail Designs to build a natural surface flow trail for all biking and hiking levels within city limits! Flow trails include elements like smooth surfaces, wide turns, and moderate slopes that encourage use by all levels, from beginner to experienced mountain bikers. The planned loop winds along the wooded edges of Catawba Meadows Park and will feature a jumpline, rock outcroppings, and bridges to protect water quality of the Catawba River.

Community Benefits:
- Increased quality of life for locals through access to a natural surface bike trail.
- Habitat improvement in the form of invasive plant species removal along the trail.
- A new tourism attraction for Burke County and proposed NICA race course.
