A Carolina Thread Trail marker stands sentinel on the grassy bank of the Catawba River, where the Riverwalk connects Rock Hill to a wider regional trail network.

A wooden post bearing the words “Carolina Thread Trail” and topped with an artistic teal medallion marks a scenic overlook on the Rock Hill Riverwalk in South Carolina. Beyond the post, the Catawba River flows past wooded banks beneath a bright spring sky, illustrating how this fifteen-county greenway network weaves communities together through nature, recreation, and conservation.
