Discover Raleigh, NC, United States

  • Fun For All in Raleigh

    No matter what you're interested in seeing and doing on vacation, you'll find it in Raleigh, NC. The state capital is a mecca of history, art, culture, and outdoor recreation. Pick up your car rental at Raleigh-Durham Airport and travel through the downtown traffic to get started.

    Get Active

    The Neuse River Trail is a beautiful greenway designed for hikers and bikers, spanning 28 miles through Raleigh from the Falls Lake Dam in Wake Forest. You can park just east of the city at Anderson Point Park to access the trail. It will take you just 15 minutes to take the 10-mile drive from downtown Raleigh with your car rental.

    William B. Umstead State Park has more than 5,000 acres of hiking trails to explore, along with boating, canoeing, and fishing opportunities. From Anderson Point Park, it's about a 20-minute drive on Interstate 440-W.

    Explore the Culture

    If indoor activities are more your speed, visit the North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences. This free attraction explores the natural and cultural history of the Raleigh area, with exhibits about butterflies, the coastal ecosystem, and scientific research. You can also pay a small fee to check out 3D movies and special exhibitions. From Anderson Point Park, you can reach the museum in about 15 minutes via Interstate 440-E.

    The North Carolina Museum of Art is another great choice. It features a permanent collection with works by artists like Andrew Wyeth as well as rotating exhibitions and a beautiful outdoor sculpture garden. General admission is free, though special exhibits may carry a fee. The art museum is just over 9 miles from the Museum of Natural Sciences, so it's easy to check out both in the same day with your car rental.
