Elkin & Alleghany Rail Trail | Elkin NC
Today we visit the two and a half mile Elkin & Alleghany Rail Trail which begins at Elkin Municipal Park.
As the name implies, this trail is built on the railbed of the historic Elkin & Alleghany railroad. Interestingly two other historic trails, the North Carolina Mountains-to-Sea trail and the Overmountain Victory National Historic Trail share part of this trail.
The trailhead to Elkin Creek Mountain Bike Trails is also on the greenway and on my visit list!

Hugh Chatham Memorial Bridge, 1931-2011, Elkin North Carolina
The Hugh Chatham Memorial Bridge was built in 1931 across the Yadkin River between the towns of Elkin and Jonesville NC. The state declared it unsafe a few years ago and now it is gone. All we have is the memories of it in our mind. Grandma didn't drive so we walked across it from Jonesville to Elkin several times a week to shop in downtown Elkin. It is totally gone for good.
