In 2006 the inmates of Charlotte, North Carolina were enlightened to a recreational facility that is known as the US National Whitewater Center since then it has been a huge success.
There are a number of activities that you can do in this Center and entertain yourself. But you have to keep one thing in mind that this recreational center is huge and spread over a vast area of land; therefore, it will require a lot of maintenance as well.
Hence, all the activities that you will do or get entertained from in this Center are charged.
Although there are different passes available to suit your requirements and needs such as a daily pass and a seasonal pass and the prices of these passes are pretty nominal as well. But if you do not plan to visit this center often and do not want to spend money, there are some free things that you can benefit from at this amazing recreational center.
In our opinion, everyone should visit this park at least once in his or her life. Even if you are looking to enjoy all the free things at the USNWC, you should keep in mind the fact that you will have to pay the minimal of the parking fee. Below is the list of some activities that you can enjoy at the USNWC without any charge or without spending a handful.
1) Walking and Dog-walking Paths
If you are someone who likes walking alone or even along with your dog, the USNWC is just the perfect place for you. It has huge paths of concrete/gravel, where you can enjoy walking alone, with friends or even along with your dog.
Dogs are also allowed on the paths as far as they have a leash. The walking path is in the center of all the activity, so you can enjoy walking while observing all the recreational activities at the same time.
2) A perfect Place for Yoga
There are some perfect places like the grassy knoll, which is just beyond the River Jam Stage, also the South Ridge just beyond the Ridge Pavilion, which is ideal for Yoga. The USNWC also offers free yoga classes, which are seasonal.
These yoga classes are conducted with professional yoga trainers and are state of the art yoga classes.
3) The 40 Miles of Trails for Trail Running, Hiking and Mountain Biking Invites you
The 40-mile trails are designed to meet the skill level of every professional whether beginner, amateur or pro. While hiking you can enjoy all the natural view and may have the feeling that you are far away from the city when actually are not.
4) Find a Perfect Spot To Relax
While at the USNWC, you are allowed to find a spot at the grass and relax, you can just lie down and read a book or take sunbathe, while a lot is happening around you.
