About this location
Hominy Creek Park is a popular launching point for paddling and tubing the French Broad River. The park is also the end of the French Broad River Greenway, and therefore a popular running, walking, and biking destination. Samples here are done in collaborative effort between MountainTrue and NC DEQ. NC DEQ takes samples on Mondays. MountainTrue takes samples on Wednesdays.
