BIKING THE ART TO HEART TRAIL (NC MUSEUM OF ART – DOWNTOWN RALEIGH)

If you love exploring different areas of Raleigh on bike rides and greenway trails, we thoroughly enjoyed biking the 6-mile Art to Heart Trail on Saturday as a family with pit stops for coffee and then lunch and drinks in Downtown Raleigh.

The Art to Heart Trail is a point-to-point trail that connects the North Carolina Museum of Art (NCMA) to the heart of Downtown Raleigh. This trail begins at the NCMA which is the state’s premiere collection of art, situated within a 164-acre sculpture park.

The North Carolina Museum of Art is one of the most popular Raleigh museums and admission to the Museum’s permanent collection and outdoor Museum Park is FREE – parking is also free!

Biking The Art To Heart Trail

Keep in mind that the Art to Heart Trail is NOT a loop. You can of course bike one way in to downtown and then back again.

Reedy Creek Trail At NCMA

Once you leave the grounds of the NCMA you’ll pick up the Reedy Creek Trail. Even though we did this on a Saturday, and it was a lovely 77 degrees out in November.

Coffee Break

At the entrance gates to Meredith College on Hillsborough Street, across the road is Lucky Tree, one of our favorite coffee shops in Raleigh.
