The trail head is at a large gravel parking lot to the right of the post office with a bulletin board depicting the trail route. The trail is double track, suitable for most bikes but not for three wheelers as the tracks are narrow with a berm in the middle. Crushed and packed stone with occasional sketchy spots. Would love to see the trail graded flat with more rolled stone to create a wider lane to accommodate handicap users.
Beautiful trail that follows an amazing, clear stream that begs to be fished. It is the water supply for Lewisburg.
Very nice trail. Asphalt in great condition, except from Mc Donald to Falls Mills which was decent crushed limestone. Grades were very gentle, all1% or less. On a Monday we passed someone running or biking every 5-10 min. Overall a great experience
We spent three days riding this trail. It was an absolutely beautiful ride with lots of bridges and two tunnels. It's mostly flat with plenty of shade on a hot summer day. Lots of photo opportunities.
We rode parts of this trail the week of June 22, 2025. The trail is remote (not much cell service) which we like. My wife suffered a blowout not far from the bigfoot. That shortened our ride that day. The trail surface is decent for the most part but there are sections where there are pretty large rocks/stones that you have to watch out for. My wife's blowout was due to one of these. No big hills which is nice. The 2nd day we rode from Gassaway to Strange Creek. Saw no other humans either day however it was pretty hot both days we rode. The big takeaway for us was the trailheads need a lot of work. For the most part, they were just parking lots. No water, no covered shelter or picnic table and no restroom at the trailhead. (restrooms were scattered over the trail, however). Shoutout to Trailhead Farm Meats & More and Bigfoot Braxxies in Gassaway for helping us with the flat tire and yummy pepperoni rolls.
Rode from Hendricks to Elkins and back mid-June on a saturday. Somewhat disappointed and would not do this trail again. Construction zone for corridor H is a mess with tough gravel and no signage. An average rider on a hybrid might find this section very unpleasant. The paved section from Hendricks to Parsons has enough little ridges from roots that it's annoying. Otherwise, the scenery is just not that great, you ride close so highways, and sections of the trail are not maintained as other rail trails are. This one seems to be a rustic trail compared to others so maybe that's the way it is intended.
My friend and fellow bike adventurer David and I spent three days riding the entire trail twice. West Virginia is truly scenic and this trail also doesn't disappoint. Many trails claim they are adjacent to water but often meander far away. This trail is next to the scenic Greenbrier River almost the entire 77 miles and the tree canopy was protective on our hot, sunny days. We lodged in Marlinton (TwoTire AirB&B) a town with all necessary services. Day one we rode north to Cass, an historic town with a nice cafe, museum, gift shop and an excursion steam locomotive. The up and back ride was 51 miles. Day two we rode south to Rorer (26 miles) and back for our 52 mile day. We stopped at the really nice general store on the trail in Seebert (10 miles south of Marlinton) and bought sandwiches to take to our lunch stop...this is the only food service on this stretch of the trail. On day three we drove to Spring Creek so we could ride south to the trails end near Caldwell. Spring Creek has very limited and remotely located parking so I'd recommend other parking areas if you follow a similar itinerary. There is no food service on this stretch. we planned to ride into Caldwell and over to Lewisburg but this turned out to be a bad idea. The trail ends at mile marker 3.1. The narrow and hilly country road into Caldwell has no shoulder and had traffic on our Sunday stop. We determined it was too dangerous to cycle but we needed lunch...solution...call Dominoes and have a pizza delivered to the trailhead.
Phone service is limited but we found that stops like Cass, Seebert and Caldwell had service.
The trail is mostly a two track path and is fairly well maintained. The best bike for this trail would be a gravel or touring style bike with 36c or larger tires. I wouldn't recommend a road bike and while we saw one hand cycle and one recumbent, they were struggling a bit.
I did the trail from end to end in two days pulling a BOB trailer with no problem staying overnight at one of the campsites near Cass. It’s an easy trail to ride with wildlife around each bend. I saw every kind of animal WV has to offer including two bears. The campsites are well spaced and well thought out. Water is available but I wouldn’t pass one by without topping off. This is a great trail for an introduction to bike packing. Cell service is sketchy at best so be prepared.
We ride tandem with hybrid tires. We rode from Thomas to Parsons and thanks to a shuttle service, did one way. It’s definitely a nice downhill ride but difficult to get up speed due to the many large potholes on the way to the first set of falls. Then turns to rough single track with tall grass and then gets a bit wider as you near Hendricks. Rode on the Allegheny Highlands trail (paved) to Parsons. The sounds of waterfalls surround you. No facilities or cell service in the canyon. Needed to stop to navigate fallen a few times.
We rode north out of Lost Creek for seven miles. The trail is pretty rough gravel at its southern end and lots of single-track. Also, unfortunately it had not been mowed.
We rode from Elkins out about 10 miles north towards Montrose and returned. The trail is in great condition. It was such a lovely day we regretted that we had not planned to ride further. Lovely farmland and plenty of shade. Good summer riding.
