@thesociableadventurer Valdese, NC, is a quaint town with a beautiful downtown area and growing parks and recreation sites. Valdese Lakeside Park is a 300-acre piece of property developed for recreational use, and it includes 8.5 miles of hiking and biking trails, a kayak launch, a dog park, a picnic area, and space for fishing. We took the 2-mile greenway and crossed the 160-foot suspension bridge to McGalliard Falls Park, where we explored McGalliard Falls, a 40-foot waterfall, and the 1906 Meytre Grist Mill. @Visit NC @DiscoverTheCarolinas @Discover_Burke_County @Year of the Trail #Valdese #ValdeseNC #BurkeCounty #BurkeCountyNC #McGalliardFalls #McGalliardFallsPark #ValdeseLakesidePark #BurkeOut #visitnc #mync #celebratenc #celebratingnc #bestofthetarheelstate #explorenc #explorelocal #discoverthecarolinas #discovercarolinas #NC #paddlenc #paddletrail #waterfall #chasingwaterfalls #waterfallnc #lovenc #BestoftheTarheelState #NC #NorthCarolina #greattrailsstate #greattrailsnc #yearofthetrail #hikenc ♬ Sing of the Forest – Amanda Rosa
