New Trail Reviews

Rode the bike trail from the Visitors Center to the point. Make sure you go to the point. It is beautiful.

love this trail and am really looking forward to more good-weather days ahead. I managed to get out for a ride this afternoon after a quick rain shower moved through, and it turned out to be a decent day. Despite the recent rain—and even snow just two days ago—the trail was in great shape between Highgate and Fairfield. I rode 15 miles out and back for a total of 30 miles. Smooth ride, beautiful scenery, and well-maintained conditions. Can’t wait to be back out there again soon! Better weather is coming…

Easy straight trail and lunch at Margaritaville

Trail is nice and flat for biking. However if you are looking for a quiet ride, this is not the place. The trail is next to the road and traffic can be moderate to heavy so quiet noisy. You can ride on sidewalk/trail.

I took some video which I will post once I process it.

Rode it from the entrance gate at Fort Pulaski. First three miles were in great condition. It is hard packed what looks like crushed gravel. Great views on one side of the river, but it runs parallel to the highway a few yards away. The heavy traffic noise detracted some from the experience. After 3 miles it separates from the trail, but in this section it is poorly maintained. There are some parts where it is down to single track. Large sections that are covered in washed over reeds. The tires on our tandem bike sunk in making it like pedaling through loos sand.

Started at Green Pond Trail Head and headed North. As reported, the trail has some pretty big bumps and a few holes, usually near the edge. With the limited traffic on the path, it isn't difficult to avoid them but you do have to keep your eyes on the trail. On 3/28 there was quite a bit of tree trimming and brush consolidation in the 10 miles between Green Pond and Bay Lake and some heavier equipment was staging at the State Park garage near Green Pond so maybe they are going to fix it this Spring.

The 10 miles between Green Pond and Bay lake is a very nice mostly shaded ride through timber with swamp land on both sides. There are 3 bridges about 2 1/2 Miles North of Green Pond which provides a place to watch alligators (this is mating season so you see some but there's a bunch more as the grunt and talk...), enjoy the birds and quiet serenity. At Bridge 2 that day, there is a 10+ Foot alligator nesting with her (soon to be) baby alligators.

North of Bay Lake is very nice and shaded for the 4 miles we traveled (Total round trip of 28 Miles).

Some call this trail 'straight and boring.' I'd suggest that it is quiet and serene, and, because it is straight and wide, you can spend most of your time enjoying nature!

Not for someone who's not used to trails with no markers! My walk started off great and I started from Waxhaw, 7900 Prescott Glen Pkwy- beautiful walk but after walking a few miles there was a threat of rain so I turned around and obviously took a wrong path because nothing is marked! I walked out to a street hoping to find direction but it was pouring rain. I stopped to ask directions from a couple on their porch with young children and they said I was about 3 miles from where I parked and offered me a ride. These larger parks need trail markers because this was an experience I could have done without!

This fabulous trail has it all including beautiful views, crushed gravel and paved sections, several places to stop with benches and "outhouses", hills, and a great lunch spot for after the ride (Crane Brewing Company). My husband and I love this trail for biking on the weekends so much that we drive across town to ride it!

starts as a paved trail, plenty sharp corners, wide open views on the city skyline. once it turns into dirt there's a multitude of trails and navigation can be a bit tricky if not familiar with the terrain, it branches into McCullough Hills trail and others, mostly a XC single track style trail.

This trail is outstanding so far. Still a lot of work to be done, but wow.

The trail is incredibly straight, so it can seem boring at times, but that also makes long rides easy since you can just go without having to slow down for roads or anything. Eden and Bart townships have done work on improving their segments, and the whole trail, even where it says “unimproved,” is perfectly rideable until Atglen, where it does deteriorate a bit. Overall great trail.

This is a great urban trail. Lots of road-crossings, as you can expect being in the city. Note that the parking listed on the map is private; I had to park on Edgar St. I also found an unlisted expansion to the south.

It’s a nice little trail. Notice: the only restroom is mid-way at the Water St. cul-de-sac.

I often had to slow down for pedestrians on a weekend in February. Has some brief but aggressive climbs. Excited for the final piece to open soon.

This trail is straight-up amazing. I have nothing else to say.
