Great trail!

February, 2025 by jennpoulter

We really enjoyed this trail. Newly paved, wide path, marked well, and scenic.

Chattahoochee Valley Railroad Trail

Did not feel safe

The trail itself was nice, but a couple of the parking lots were overgrown. We did not feel safe in the area.

Man O' War Railroad Recreation Trail

Absolutely beautiful path, well maintained, clean, regularly spaced trash cans and places to stop and sit. It does climb in elevation but the path is well leveled so the ride is comfy the whole time. I will be riding this particular trail again!

Very nice ride. The trail is about 13 miles long. Nicely paved and not crowded. We started from the pine mountain visitor's center, which had nice bathrooms. There is plenty of parking on a weekday and good restaurants at the end of the ride.

Lacks Signs - But Nice Otherwise - Here's where to Park

July, 2024 by dscottgriffin

Actually a nice trail in a has been mill town.

The trails do have a couple of switch backs at the south end, but these are easily identifiable. As others mentioned, the four lane crossing is the most confusing area near the old Langdale Mill. Just look well across Highway 29 to see where the trail picks up again.

There are actually 6 parking areas along the trail.

Shawmut (North End)
3506 22nd Avenue
Valley, AL 36854

North Central (Old Langdale Mill)
3506 19th Avenue
Valley, AL 36854

Old Train Station
103 River Rd
Valley, AL 36854

South Central (Middle of a neighborhood)
3136 Columbus Rd
Valley, AL 36854

South End (My Favorite)
Behind First Christian Church of Riverview (on Myhand St.)
1465 California Rd
Valley, AL 36854

Most Southern End - Old Riverview School
7755 School St
Valley, AL 36854

The trail is nicely paved and lightly used. Unfortunately, the historical signs have fallen into disrepair. The trail could use paint on the ground if nothing else to give directions where confusion may exist.

Note - watch out for the missing barrier plates on the ground at road crossings that may puncture your tire if you are not careful.

Nice local ride overall.

Great ride!

April, 2024 by swgross

Spent the day exploring the well maintained and apparently freshly paved trail! Awesome experience riding and exploring the small towns there. Stop in the Harris County Chamber of Commerce for a mid-trip snack. Great folks there. Get some ice cream at the Hamilton Ice Cream Company. Was a really good day.

Man O' War Railroad Recreation Trail

gorgeous ride

March, 2024 by bglade11

Wonderful trail. Steady incline to Pine Mountain. Plenty of restroom spots. Gorgeous scenery. Highly recommend this well paved trail for all bikes and all levels. About 33 miles round trip. Shorten as needed. Seems like an extra 4.5 miles will be added in a few years. Not very shaded in some parts, but we road this in spring, so maybe the trees will cover more area. A few road crossings that are very well marked, and one larger intersection. Free parking in Pine Mountain.

Chattahoochee Riverwalk

Nice cruise

February, 2024 by inrvoice048

Started at Lumpkin road south end. Easy 7 to 8 mile ride into town. Good access to food etc using exit ramp just before Indigo Hotel.

Chattahoochee Riverwalk

Beautiful Fall Morning

October, 2023 by donmyers0509

This trail is a joy. A bit hilly in spots but nothing too crazy ( going north). It has a park like setting as you ride along the river. The army base was interesting as well. I got to see the parachute drop, some cool old planes, a little history, and the firing range. I was not expecting any of that. I’m glad that I did this run.
