Try NC’s State Parks
North Carolina has 41 state parks. Many of those parks are within an hour or two drive of the Triangle area—four are even in the Triangle (Falls Lake, Jordan Lake, Eno River, and Umstead parks). If you’re getting eager to be outdoors with some easing of the pandemic shutdown and the arrival of better weather, then check out the information on the NC Parks Department website. A link to a quick list of the state parks can be found at

The site itself has information in more detail on the amenities and features of each of the parks.
