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.
They have built a very nice bike path that connects the middle and the southern sections along Bailey Cove Road. There are also lights at the crosswalks. Thanks!!
From the Kingston Pavilion at Ditto Landing, cross the bridge and walk north along the river. Also suitable for gravel or mountain bikes. About 60% shaded. Beautiful walk.
The majority of this trail was extremely disappointing. I think TrailLink needs to go back and reevaluate a large section of this trail. A narrow sidewalk that runs along a busy street, for several miles, does not constitute a bike or walking path. Mallard Point was beautiful in mid April. That said, the large waterpark was not open. I would not come here during the summer because it’s probably total chaos. The large parking lots have the clear signs no RVs and no campers allowed.
The trail was nearly immaculate -- hats off to the citizens of Athens. Beautiful path that followed Swan Creek almost the entire way. People, dogs, bikes, strollers... all kind and thoughtful.
I started at the south trailhead and did an out and back for a total of 22 miles. The southern half of the trail is definitely in better condition, but my gravel bike did fine on everything. Rapeseed was blooming,as were the red buckeyes. saw several other cyclist and two groups on horseback. Wonderful to see people out on such a beautiful day.
The construction south of I-24 is done. You can now get all the way south to Barfield Park.
Is the trail a continuation or is it broken up on the other side of the interstate?
only thing keeping it from 5* is length. Parallels river 90%, light traffic. Surface is nothing fancy but in good condition.
