"We biked this trail in July and, except for the 100 degree temperature we experienced that day, it was a great ride.

"This is a smooth little trail that extends north out of the waterfront park and follows along the rim of the Missouri River canyon and the once elaborate series of water falls--hence Great Falls--since filled in by dam activity down river.Only Black Eagle Falls remain.The bird life in the canyon is rich. We rode along with scores of brown pelicans who nest here in the summer.The trail also skirts along a Lewis and Clark Heritage Center and Giant Springs State Park, an enormous seep that dumps millions of gallons of spring water into the Missouri.The trail is paved and appears to have been embraced by the folks of Great Falls as we saw many families and even convolescent center patients in wheel chairs in the early evening. I rate this one high for its wildlife viewing possiblities and historical perspectives. It's in great shape and an easy ride, especially after a huge dinner across the river in Black Eagle at Bori's Restaurant where the portions of rigatoni are as voluminous as the open sky."
