Arrived in Blacksburg on the 12th and hopped on the trail by the Public Library in Blacksburg. The weather was a little cool, overcast and was lightly raining for mist of the ride. Trail conditions were great (asphalt & concrete) with decent signage. I love me a good greenway as much as the next person, but I was not expecting the steep hills. Most were easily passible, a couple of them we pushed the bikes up them. We’ll be better prepared the next time. The views in and around Blacksburg are excellent. Recommend this trail to all to see. Eat your Wheaties before you ride!
We started at the south end on 10/13 and ride to the Anthony Rd. Boat launch and returned to the south end. Great trail conditions, not too busy traffic-wise. Looking forward to our next trip to the region to pick up where we left off.
Did this trail on the first cool late August Sunday afternoon and enjoyed it immensely. Small town flavor with woods, some houses, fields, and some businesses. It wasn’t well marked and we only saw one real sign that designated it as this trail. We parked at the church after asking an employee there if it was OK. He said no problem. As another reviewer said it’s great for a Sunday afternoon pedal.
Just spoke with the Ranger today, August 24, 2025 at the Canyon Rim visitor center and he said the trail was closed. It has been closed for a while because of the bridges are not safe anymore. So cross this one off your list.
Loved this ride! Started at Nalen and rode up to the big tressel for a 16 mile out and back total. Such great scenery of the Meadow River which is full of smallies! A few places to go down to the water. That river is beautiful and ranges from flat shallow spots to giant boulders cascading water! I wish there was more openings to view the riverbed! The forest was deep, dark, cool, and shady. Saw deer and turkeys for wildlife. It is one of the top trails we have done this summer! Well done WV!
The trail head is at a large gravel parking lot to the right of the post office with a bulletin board depicting the trail route. The trail is double track, suitable for most bikes but not for three wheelers as the tracks are narrow with a berm in the middle. Crushed and packed stone with occasional sketchy spots. Would love to see the trail graded flat with more rolled stone to create a wider lane to accommodate handicap users.
Beautiful trail that follows an amazing, clear stream that begs to be fished. It is the water supply for Lewisburg.
Did the ride on 23 Jul. As part of trip planning I called Allegheny Outdoors to determine trail status. They are located at the eastern end parking lot. Being told the trail was open all the way I loaded up and left for the trail head. Rode the trail east to west and back. Beautiful views of the river with tree covered mountains on the other side no real vistas this is close up nature at it’s best. Great facilities on each end with additional parking along the way. Surface was ok. I thought the ground stone was a little deep in places. Probably because it’s a newer trail and recent rains required patching in places. I think I’ll return in late fall/early winter when view of the river will be better and temps more palatable for this ole man. Highly recommended ride.
Rode 10 miles northbound from the Christiansburg Rec Center, keeping west of Blacksburg. While there are some flattish sections. there are some rolling hills (2-4%) and more (4-6%). Further north it gets steeper, 7-9%, and even 12% at one point.
Lots of benches, partly shaded, a couple of restroom stops. Trail is sometimes narrower than standard.
It's quiet, has plenty of shade, peppered with picnic tables, and markings for 5K, 10K, half and full Marathon runs starting from the Intervale trailhead (bathrooms). Trail was closed due to recent washout about 8 or 9 mi up from Intervale.
10 mile asphalt trail with few root-cracks and little shade (I'm beginning to suspect the two are related). No road crossings except for the well-marked, half-mile detour through a quit neighborhood for major bridge construction. There is no longer a gap between Bridge St. and Salem (despite the Traillink narrative and map), asphalt extending to Cook Dr. That access has a porta-potty.
