One of the most popular state parks in North Carolina. Pilot Mountain State Park is anchored by the rocky peak that provides its name and offers plenty of hiking trails, horseback trails and picnic areas. Also, rappelling and rock climbing.

A hidden gem for hiking, paddling, camping and horseback riding. Often overlooked, this section is 20 minutes south of the main park in a secluded area where shoals and small islands punctuate the Yadkin River.

The trail may be used by all horseback riders and hikers for most of the year, except for deer hunting season (mid-Nov. to mid-Dec.).
