I've explored the pines for more than 20 years at this point. I've learned the most history from this book. It also gives you directions on how to get to many of them, although many are no longer legal to get to by vehicle. It also gives you maps and renderings of what the original towns/buildings were used for.

The trail system is pretty manageable with some googling. I typically start from the main dirt roads that have names and explore from there. The Batona trail is a nice hike if you have the legs for it and a lot of bug spray. Batsto village has a lot of cool educational stuff too. Head there when they have an event and you won't be disappointed.

If you like folklore, I enjoyed this book. Varies a bit from the original lore I heard growing up, but I enjoyed the book.

I'd be happy to point you in the right directions, but I'm usually solo with my dogs in the pines. It's my church and it's where my happy place is.
