Cramer Mountain Trail Plan
Nature Trails is a partner of the Carolina Thread Trail and Catawba Lands Conservancy and has designed and built numerous trail segments with municipal partners across their network. The Cramer Mountain Trail involved coordination with the Town of Cramerton, a private developer and a local religious organization to connect existing riverfront infrastructure with a nearby neighborhood and school. Key elements included identifying, rehabilitating and repurposing old infrastructure such as a concrete bridge and dry-stack stone wall, traversing steep hillsides, and designing custom cantilevered boardwalks. The trail was routed around an adjacent golf course without affecting the visual or physical integrity of nearby properties. Nature Trails held stakeholder engagement sessions to display proposed alignments, gather feedback and walk corridors; the plan resulted in Memorandums of Agreement for planned easements.
