Daniel Boone, one of America's favorite heroes of the pioneer era, spent the 21 years between 1752 and 1773 in North Carolina and left his trace on the area’s history. The North Carolina Daniel Boone Heritage Trail links different spots that played important roles in Daniel Boone’s and North Carolina’s history.

By visiting them, you are brought back to the exciting times when the young country was being built. Along the trail, you will visit a replica of Boone’s cabin on the bank of Beaver Creek, see the site of the fort where he hid during the Cherokee War, see the ruins of the historic 1753 Moravian village where Boone brought his brother when he was ill, visit the cave on the Yadkin River where Boone lived when fishing and hunting in the area, and so much more.
