Good shade. Some bumps but mostly marked. Stayed out of Hattiesburg.
The trail certainly has its allure as it traverses, offers many challenging hills, and has lots of curves for visual interest. With three road bikes and a gravel bike, we loved it. However, about 1/4 of the trail is still in need of serious maintenance. Some of the cracks are so deep, a front tire could easily fall in landing on the shoulders of the cyclist before you.
There is a paved bike path through the old golf course. The entrance is just past the entrance road to the Children's Museum.
This trail is now complete all the way to Riverside Drive.
We had a great two day ride weather was great and trail was great also.
I biked the trail on Saturday, August 10, 2024, and it was an excellent trail. All of the ruts and damage to the trail has been repaired. I recommend this trail because it is my favorite.
On a bike, the pavement is dangerous in many places. Some holes and bumps are difficult to see. Use caution. Needs repaving soon. Fine for running and walking.
Beware of the downtown area. Very few drivers stopped for us in crosswalks. I also had one driver sharing the bike lane with me. If that bothers you, start at mile 5
Agree with the other posts. The trail has some dangerous ruts, not from lack of maintenance but weather related.
Completed the trail over three days to take it all in. Great trail and worth the drive to ride
This trail is awesomely maintained with beautiful rural America scenery. We rode from Hattiesburg to Prentiss and all the restrooms and water stations were open and clean. A must do rail trail, what a wonderful trail and a real asset to the communities it goes through.
