About Greenville County Trails

Greenville County boasts one of the most celebrated trail networks in the Southeast. The crown jewel is the Swamp Rabbit Trail — a 22-mile greenway connecting Greenville's vibrant downtown to Travelers Rest through riparian forests, local farms, and charming towns.

For mountain bikers and serious hikers, Paris Mountain State Park offers technical singletrack and forested climbs just minutes from downtown. Lake Conestee Nature Preserve provides an entirely different experience — flat boardwalks through wetlands and bottomland forest, perfect for birding and peaceful walks.

Whether you prefer paved greenways with coffee shop stops along the way or rugged mountain trails with sweeping views, Greenville County has a trail for every pace and every season.
