Beaver Creek Greenway offers a pleasant, paved route in the community of Apex, a western suburb of Raleigh. Much of the trail is wooded and it connects two parks, Kelly Road Park and Jaycee Park. The trail’s east end is not far from the town’s quaint downtown, which is centered around Salem Street. Its west end is about 2 miles (on-road) from the American Tobacco Trail, which heads 22 miles north to Durham. Beaver Creek has asphalt, concrete and boardwalk surface types.
