Mecklenburg Community Church is situated right in the heart of 80 beautiful acres of pristine woods in Charlotte, North Carolina and the Meck Trail winds through it all. We have transformed this stroller-friendly trail into an outdoor chapel outfitted with benches, plaques filled with handpicked Scripture, picturesque waterfalls and wooden bridges to retreat. Grab a coffee at The Grounds Bookstore and Café and escape to the Meck Trail as a destination to think, pray, walk and find sanctuary. From start to finish, the trail is roughly 3/4 of a mile in length. We hope you’ll take advantage of all the Meck Trail has to offer.
