-
In 2019, Cub Creek and the Town of Wilkesboro were named an N.C. Mountain Heritage Trout City.
Inside the park boundaries is the award-winning restored Cub Creek Stream that is designated as trout water which is hatchery supported and named an N.C. Mountain Heritage Trout City. Cub Creek Park and stream bring is a popular spot for families to visit, picnic, walk, fish, or allow the kids to wade through the water and play. Along the creek, you can find some rather quiet spots to meditate and relax with a great book, just bring a blanket.
The park is home to some immaculate walking tracks and is popular with many users daily. Future plans include the Yadkin River Greenway and the Town of Wilkesboro plan to link this park’s walking trails to the growing greenway system, giving Cub Creek users access to more recreation beyond its boundaries.
