This 1.5-mile greenway is comprised of sidewalk and paved trail and is suitable for walking and running. Biking is also feasible along the trail, although bikers should heed the directions noted below. The Hickory Greenway connects multiple parks, including the Glenn C. Hilton, Jr. Memorial Park a park complete with playgrounds, a memorial garden, many picnic areas, and other nice amenities.
*Special Note to Bikers: This greenway has several areas which are suitable for biking. Bikers can bike along the road in the residential area. However, bikers should beware that there is a large set of steps at the start of the greenway portion that immediately follows the residential area. From that location, the paved greenway stretches briefly until reaching a boardwalk where biking is not permitted.
