The Cape Carteret Trail is a dedicated multi-use path along NC 58, NC 24, and Taylor Notion Road in the center of Cape Carteret. The multi-use path is generally 10 ft. wide, primarily consisting of asphalt with some concrete segments, and is approximately 3.4 miles long. The multi-use path is available to bicyclists, walkers, and runners, and is a great way to stay healthy and travel to the main commercial area, the Western Carteret Library, White Oak Elementary School, and other destinations.
The Town of Cape Carteret also participated with the towns of Bogue, Cedar Point and Peletier in the development of the 2025 Western Carteret County Bicycle & Pedestrian Plan.
