Hammock Hills Trail

Just across from the National Park Service's Ocracoke Campground, Hammock Hills Nature Trail is a 3/4-mile trail through the island's maritime forest and salt marsh. It's a great trail for nature lovers and bird watchers, and there are informative signposts along the way. The hike takes about 30 minutes. Parking is available for several cars, or one can walk or bike there on the paved biking trail that starts at South Point Road at the village line.
