Harry Wiggins Trolley Track Trail

Be aware of your surroundings

June, 2023 by sars64113

Watch out for motorized bikes and scooters! Most do not give warning to their passing. Many are higher powered "electric" "battery" operated and exceed a 5 mph speed without warning. Pedestrians and dogs are at risk. Also many of Waldo area homeless stay along the trail. Quite the sight to see!

Line Creek Trail

Love the trail But there are alot of bikers then walkers. The bikers tend to ride by you really fast so stay alert and listen to your surroundings. Wish they had there own lane.

Little Mill Creek Trail

Great Trail

March, 2023 by mope-punter.0h

I walk this almost every day and love it. The distance is not correct however. This trail is easily 4-5 miles one way. Love the creek by the walk and all of the trees. It’s also safe and a gorgeous walk.

Line Creek Trail

Rode from the south at the Argosy casino to the Costco on 152 highway. Very nice. Riverside area was a bit sketchy but not that bad.

Cedar Niles Park Trail

Beautiful trail that leads to nowhere

January, 2023 by xbfck6mj8w

Beautiful trail but I’m not sure why they didn’t make it a complete circle as it doesn’t really lead to anything.

S. Lawrence Trafficway Trail

Rides by Clinton lake, we're you can take a detour and Baker wetlands. Railtrail connects with downtown and several breweries.

Lawrence Levee Trail

not best for electric

October, 2022 by lesnord 1023

Mostly fields, river often obscured, north part has a section that is a small trail only big enough for single bike trail. Electric bikes not nimble enough for that section. Looks like fun for mountain bikers.

Riverfront Heritage Trail

kaw point park

September, 2022 by dan.allen.50552

We started at Kaw point Park at the confluence of the Kaw and Missouri River. We rode across the Missouri River and rode downtown KC. Farmers market and Cliff drive. We did 25 miles total. Great urban and industrial areas to use as trail.

Weston Bluffs Trail

OK trail

September, 2022 by dan.allen.50552

If your headed to Weston, this is a nice side trail or Weston Bend State Park.Paved, gravel combination with ruts. The trailhead in Weston is hard to find, very poorly marked, word to the wise.

Weston Bluffs Trail

ok trail

September, 2022 by dan.allen.50552

Trailhead not well marked In Westin. Some great , mediocre, gravel and rutted. Nice along Missouri River. Westin nice boutique town. Not worth a special trip, but if headed that way is a nice way to spend some time

Lake Shawnee Trail

Beautiful peaceful ride

August, 2022 by bradybunch84

Rode my bike around the trail 8/20/22 on a Saturday morning starting at 10:30. Beautiful day so I expected the trail to be crowded but it wasn't at all. Just a few walkers and even less on bikes. Beautiful scenery. Saw a sailboat sailing. So many flowers. Do stop and visit the Ted Ensley Garden (all free). Just amazing. So peaceful. Plenty of toilets along the way. Water to drink along the way too.
