We started in Parking lot#3. Glad to have the traillink map-it was fun cruising around all the loops - so much better than a straight path. Every section was different. Beautiful scenery - saw a big eagle nest with Mama in it/a huge lilypad pond. We did 10miles but this could easily be at least a 20mile trail. Just go in reverse and mixup the loops. Totally enjoyable and I would use this all the time if I lived close to it.
Nice connection between Kaiser Station and down by Home Depot. There’s a couple of cracks that you need to be careful of other than that. Great ride.
Wonderful ride in the park. Safe, green, quiet, and a bit scenic.
We camped at the county fairgrounds in Rickreall and rode into Monmouth to visit college haunts. An enjoyable day.
The other reviews spoke of the homeless issues so I expected some, but our radar had to be on full for the first couple of miles. I recommend driving to the west end and riding east and turning around when your comfort level is exceeded. Also, the parking is much safer.
Ride along the beautiful Middle Fork Path (aka Clearwater path) next to the Willamette River. Nice River views with no city in sight, yet Springfield and Eugene are close by.(we ride from home in Southwest Eugene for a nice 20 mile RT) Riverbank Trail gets you close to Dorris Ranch trailhead or the Millrace ( new addition) trailhead
We parked at B and 2nd and it was a bit tricky figuring out how to get on the right trail to Philomath but finally got to it. Worse part is there is now a much bigger area in the field under the overpass that has a lot of homeless camp. No one bothered us They have marked the few bumps in the asphalt with white paint which was helpful. Would not do again.
Do not recommend this trail. Parking is a 50/59 shot if your car will be broken into. And the path is often blocked by homeless camps. Carry pepper spray or other protection if you must travel it.
We rode our recumbent trikes from Alton Baker park south, across the river and north to the last bridge and back to the park. We saw lots of juvenile Canada geese and several blue herons. Trail is easy and well maintained, lots of parks on both sides of the river with restroom access. The loop was about 13 miles and we rode two hours at a very leisurely pace with stops. Lovely day!
This is a great bike trail that connects with the Dorris Ranch trail and the Middle Fork trail for a really nice loop! Lots of places for stops and quite a few restrooms. Lots of people on foot, so we have to share the path!
This little path is a great connector for this neighborhood. It runs along a gully and is completely paved. It almost feels like two different paths that meet in the middle at Petersen Barn Park. There is also an unpaved parallel on the opposite side of the gully heading east from the park.
