Eno River State Park is a 10-mile stretch that spans 5 access points. We hiked at Fews Ford Access in Durham, NC, & it was beautiful, even during the colder months when we made this trip. @VisitNC @DurhamNC @NCparks @EnoRiver @visitchapelhill #DurhamNC #VisitNC #EnoRiverStatePark pic.twitter.com/XTqL4MVpEn
