The City of Mebane is proud to have over 350 acres in its eleven beautiful parks for its citizens including a plethora of amenities that satisfy the community's wants and needs. These amenities include 12 ball fields, 9 tennis courts, 6 temporary outdoor pickleball courts, 7 playgrounds, over 5 miles of trails and multi-use paths, 4 pocket parks, 2 recreation centers including the historical museum and train museum, and many other recreation opportunities within these parks. The City truly wants to offer the opportunity for all citizens to be happy and healthy.
Recently, the Mebane Greenway has opened which is the start of an on-going connectivity project throughout the city. The Mebane Greenway is 0.75 miles, but when connected with the sidewalks on 3rd St. and Corregidor St., creates a 2-mile loop using those two streets and the greenway. The City also added the Cates Farm Park trail system, which is 2 miles of trails, .5 of which is chapel hill grit, and 1.5 miles of natural surface trails in the woods.
Thanks to our Sponsors, the Cone Health Community Fitness Court was opened in the Spring of 2020 and offers another great way to be active and stay fit. No matter the type of park you are looking for, you can find it in Positively Charming Mebane. Come see our scenic parks today, and do not forget to tag us in your social media post @cityofmebanerec.
