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.
The trail is in great condition. The combination of shade and open sky made it a pleasant ride in low 80s temps.
Only a few minor repairs need to be made- steps for riders on both sides of the bridges are needed to dismount their horses- a few bridges were missing them. Also, there is a board sticking out into the path on the long bridge at mile marker 4.5. It looks like they tried to repair it, the board needs to be replaced.
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.
I love that you are along a river a lot of the time and cross a river multiple times. The trail is mostly shaded. Tons of interesting birds sing in the spring. The bathroom at Rose’s Mill is a plus. They tell you not to drink the water but after I did by mistake I suffered no ill effects. I encounter people on any day of the week, but definitely on the weekends. I highly recommend this trail.
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.
Quiet, flat, maintained, mostly shaded, along the Piney river with benches and the occasional picnic table. Port-a-potty at the Piney River trailhead, running water bathroom at the Roses Mill trailhead .
We spent three days riding this trail. It was an absolutely beautiful ride with lots of bridges and two tunnels. It's mostly flat with plenty of shade on a hot summer day. Lots of photo opportunities.
