Our second ride was captivating with beautiful weather (first e-bike ride was Shiloh Military Park). We parked at Cannonsburgh Village and rode to the north trailhead (Thompson Lane Park) then back to the south trailhead (Barfield Crescent Park). Paved 10’ wide asphalt 95% excellent with some minor damage from underlying roots causing bumps and a few dips. More noticeable on trikes. We expected a crowded path for the weekend but pleasantly surprised with a few other bikers, joggers and dog walkers. The path crosses the river several times and progresses underneath most cross traffic highways. Restrooms available at the multiple parks and shorter trailheads. Overall we travelled just over 26 miles and though we’re feeling it today,, the overall beauty made the ride worth it. Only con were the occasional homeless encampments at the beginning of our ride.
Dropped in at Barfield Road trailhead and headed up, 15.3 miles out and back on a beautiful summer day. Cicadas were loud and the birds were singing! Our first time on the trail after reading all the reviews and we loved it! Every city in America should be made to put in one of these to this caliber. Murfreesboro should be proud! Lots of people enjoying this day.
We’ve hiked this trail many times. It’s NOT a bike trail and we’ve never seen anyone try. We like this trail in all seasons. It’s well marked and in the wetter season the waterfall is beautiful. The loop trail has a great spot to view the rolling hills. Excellent parking and primitive camping if it interests you. Rated easy but a short section is close to moderate.
Construction still in progress so cannot ride complete from one trail head. Overall though was a beautiful, well maintained greenway.
Rode to the north trailhead and just south to i24 where the trail is now under construction. Nice amount of traffic and we even saw some wild turkeys. Would come again if ever I pass through Murfreesboro again.
The trail is a super easy, enjoyable walk. Not a lot to see along the way, but plenty of fresh air.
Too much city and behind industrial plants
Fun paved pave along the Stones River thru Civil war battle sites. Ride thru shaded canopies, under bridges over bridges, winding thru field. Deer jumping across the trails. Bunny rabbits hopping around in the fields. Great ride at sunset to dark. Enjoy!
Took the opportunity to ride this trail and glad I did. This greenway is wide, shady with lots of nice scenery. I looped it end to end with the connecting trail for a 25 mile ride. It is now on my list of favorites in the Middle Tennessee area.
Starts down town travels 3+ miles mostly next to active track. Ok ride not too hard to follow. Will be nice when lengthened. Good parking lots at both ends. Trail has great potential
My husband and I rode this trail for the first time and were so happy we discovered it! Not only did we enjoy a peaceful, scenic ride along the river, there is plenty of civil war landmarks along the way to learn about. The 10 mile ride runs through a historic battlefield, a park with picnic benches, and golf course, so there are plenty of places to stop along the way if you wish. When we went, a portion of the bridge that connects to the trail on over the river was closed on both sides due to current repair and maintenance so we were a bit disappointed, however, we jumped in our car and found the trail that continued on the other side and finished up that part of the trail which was worth it!
