We started the trail at the horse park, and rode south from there. The scenery was gorgeous, although there is not a lot of shade. Luckily, there was a break in the weather when we were there from the oppressive heat we’ve been having.
We rode from the Xenia station to Yellow Springs very nice ride and sunny and shady both very nice ride paved trail well marked Love Yellow Springs with its bike friendly and a lot of eateries I will be going back
Indiana has done a beautiful job with this trail. Could use real restrooms on New Albany end but the port a pots were fairly clean.
Couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day and temperature. The trail was really nice. We parked at the spot near the horse park and road toward the end point near the horse park. The horses were still grazing in the morning prior to the opening of the park. We road to Newtown Pike and had lunch at the Jimmy John’s. We decided not to continue into town along the trail. Instead we headed back to the end point near the horse park again. All together we rode 19.8 miles and were blessed with a nice breeze. So glad we made the drive from Louisville. A nice change and beautiful landscapes.
This trail is fantastic and an easy day ride. I would not venture any farther north than the Hartman Rock Garden, which I would recommend seeing. That’s because the trail is dangerous in Springfield. It’s scary, goes through a rough part of town, with loose dogs, shady characters and “call 911” painted along the trail for good reason. Heading south from the rock garden is a joy with many sights along the way. This is one of my favorite rides in Ohio so far.
As of May 2025 you can ride about 10 miles uninterrupted from Deam Lake to Pekin. The trail is paved through 5 towns (Borden, Pekin, Salem, Orleans, Mitchell). Restroom facilities are being built in a couple of those towns. It’s crushed lime except in the towns. Very enjoyable trail.
We rode the Riverwalk section and the Big Four Bridge. The bridge was great, the Riverwalk was not. It is true they had major flooding about 3 weeks ago and, understandably, this was not yet fully remediated. But even in unaffected areas the majority of the trail goes through dilapidated inner city and industrial sections with only minimal and unmaintained landscaping, hardscaping, or other park amenities. If you want a much better southern Riverwalk trail experience, go to Chattanooga TN or Columbus GA.
We crossed the Big Four Bridge while riding the River Walk portion of the Louisville Loop trail. The bridge was way better than the trail.
Loved the trail - only did Xenia to Yellow Springs and back, in conjunction with one of the connector trails. Signs use trail numbers vs names, which we didn’t realize until we were on trail… Also, not clear signage at key intersections where trails intersect or turn. Won’t be a problem if you’re expecting/prepared for it, but not as clear and user friendly as many other top tier rail trails we’ve ridden.
I started at the trail “ending” downtown - but there was no parking, no trailhead, no facilities, and no sign to identify the trail. Strange. I parked at the Catholic Church down the street. I was told I could park at the YMCA, but how do out of town people know this. Then, it was difficult to follow the trail at crossings - very few signs or road markings. The trail is nice, good surface, and beautiful scenery toward the north end. But then it ends at a farm gate - no parking, no facilities, no trailhead, and no signs. Strange. Lexington needs to develop it more! a nice trail.
