Wonderful trail. Not real busy. Enjoyed the birds and frog sounds along the walk. Very relaxing.
Park by the outdoor barn or the farm center on the map. There’s a dog park nearby. The quarry has beautiful views and is worth the hike.
Nicely maintained, very shady. Straight and little to no grade. Makes for a peaceful easy bike ride.
amazing hike and great views with perfect place for swimming
Very peaceful trail with an occasional visit by deer & turkeys. A really peaceful walk.
The trail from Sewanee to Tracy City is all asphalt now which is about 12.5 miles. The only caveat is you must ride in the bike lane on the highway that goes over I-24. If you’re coming from Sewanee look for College Street that runs parallel to the highway after you cross the bridge. It basically dead ends into the trail. Beautiful trail, about 70% shaded, inclines are very modest.
The trail is really nice, it just needs to be 2 or 3 times longer. Listed on TrailLink as 7.3 miles, but posted with markers as 5.6.
We rode the entire pathway, starting at the northern dam site. This is one of the most enjoyable, varied, and well maintained routes we've ridden! The entire route is well done, with light poles the entire way, elevated sections or bridges thru all types of natural areas (instead of around), and many parks or trailside restrooms. Whether thru parks, alongside the highway, or even past industrial businesses, the trail is landscaped O meadow-scaped), the path is smooth, and
We loved the trail and rode it round trip multiple times to train for our Katy trail tour. We and our bikes got really dusty and dirty, but that wasn’t a big deal. Do be careful at the traffic crossings.
Today 4-17-2025 my husband and I rode the trail from the Wheland Factory parking lot to the Dam. The first part of the trail goes past some industrial areas. As we got further up it goes past townhomes and downtown. Our only complaint was the lack of trail signage to keep you on tract and mileage markers. There were some metal cutouts with numbers indicating the miles and some very small markers in the concrete itself with markings but unless you stopped to read them, there was no way you could have read them as you pedaled by. The trail itself is in good shape and we saw several crews keeping the grounds surrounding the trail trimmed.
