The shaded 1.34-mile North Murfreesboro Greenway runs between Central Valley Trailhead and Walter Hill Trailhead, providing dramatic views of the East Fork Stones River from the bluffs along the way. The trailhead is roughly one mile north of Highway 231 on an unnumbered stretch of Central Valley Road (between #1161 and #1171; map). Central Valley Trailhead also provides access to the Twin Forks Horse Trail and extended parking spaces for horse trailers.

Adjacent Trailheads
Twin Forks Horse Trail runs north along the East Fork Stones River from Central Valley Trailhead to the confluence with the West Fork Stones River near East Fork Recreation Area. From there, it follows the West Fork to the US Army Corps of Engineers' Nice Mill Dam Recreation Area on Percy Priest Lake - a distance of nearly 17 miles in all. Starting at Central Valley Trailhead, the first 1.75 miles of the trail is maintained by the City of Murfreesboro; the remaining 15+ miles is maintained by the Army Corps of Engineers. Horses are not allowed on the Greenway between Central Valley Trailhead and Walter Hill Trailhead, and that stretch is no longer part of the Twin Forks Trail. (History)
