Biggin Creek Trail Walkway

# 9 - Hike the Biggin
-Creek Trail

Rated: Moderate

5.0 miles, round-trip, loop

The Biggin Creek Trail was primarily developed

for mountain bikers, but is open and encouraged for

use by hikers and trail runners. This trail offers a lot

for the family adventurer. It's one of the few trails in

the area with lots of elevation change. You'll hike

countless small, and sometimes steep hills with

roots, stumps and other obstacles. The hike stops

by the namesake, beautiful Biggin Creek. You may

see egrets, herons, turtles and alligators. The best

part: this fun adventure is located in the heart of

the town of Moncks Corner, the county seat.
