Rode the trail on Christmas Eve 2025 and it was an absolute great ride. The ride did come with a few detours due to some building on the upper side of downtown but quickly turned into a really wide open beautiful view of the Cumberland River. As with any great city, Nashville has its challenges with a few unsightly images on this trail due to bad decisions of people and government the same I did, however notice a lot of work being done to maintain the trail with trimming trees and keeping the trail safe with signs and lighting. Overall, I gave this four out of five stars and enjoyed all of the things I got to see, including downtown Nashville, passing by an old Fort, lots of old buildings and history, the baseball stadium,and the beautiful scenic views of the Cumberland River.
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.
This was our first trail to try out our Ebikes. We parked at Smith Park and got on the trail. It is paved and well maintained. There is a restroom along the way. There are a few bridges and tunnels. The trail is marked where there are sharp curves. As we got closer to the part that passes by the YMCA the trail got more crowded with walkers etc. But we just went slow. We enjoyed it. Saw a deer.
The construction south of I-24 is done. You can now get all the way south to Barfield Park.
All of us are wondering why the City is taking so very long to open the Board Walk Section. People are climbing the fence and using it now. I called and Metro said it is unsafe, yet they have abandoned working on it for us all to use. They finished the Clover Bottom area to the TSB, but they are not working at all on the Board Walk. All of us are truly saddened that Metro is just to busy to handle the work over here for us.
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
Markings for trail not there. We just looped the park. More signs are needed.
