A short twenty-mile drive north of Charlotte will bring you to Lake Norman, the largest man-made lake in North Carolina. The enormous lake has a 520 mile shoreline and is surrounded by several visit-worth small towns like Cornelius, Davidson and Huntersville. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate all the activities available on the water, which include fishing, sailing, wake-boarding, kayaking and paddling. Lake Norman offers exceptional biking opportunities including a network of greenways which connect all the lakeside towns, as well as cycle-friendly roads with marked bike lanes. There is a wonderful choice of craft breweries, restaurants and shopping to explore all around Lake Norman.
