Trail Description

Oak Rock Trail begins on the north end of the small parking lot at Crabtree Creek Picnic Area (8801 Glenwood Ave, Raleigh). A short loop includes the large oak tree growing out of a rock for which the trail is named. The trail crosses a small stream, Sal’s Branch, at two points along the route. Stonework including a check dam and culvert are signs of early projects to restore the land and build a park. This is also the park’s TRACK Trail. Kids in Parks is a nationwide network of family-friendly outdoor adventures called TRACK Trails. Each TRACK Trail features self-guided brochures and signs that turn your visit into a fun and exciting outdoors experience. Learn more about TRACK Trails on the Kids in Parks website.
