My wife and I rode this trail! It was beautiful!
My wife and I rode this trail. We both really enjoyed it!
Flint Hills Park Trail. It was a beautiful February day; 68 degrees! Started @ Orlis Cox Sports Complex in Ottawa. Rode to Pomona and back; 21 miles round trip. This section of the trail passes through farmland (broke ground) and treed areas, alternately. Some of the trail is next to an active rail line. One safety-engineered highway crossing. Well-maintained trail; kudos to the maintenance team. Wide trail; rode side-by-side, which we enjoy. Fine gravel surface. Some leaves and sticks on the trail in spots. Rail trail; no steep grades. Fantastic bridges; new, clean, wide, perfect surface! Trail head in Pomona had lots of parking and a unisex outhouse in excellent condition. To the people who rode bikes or horses on the trail when it was wet/soft - shame on you. In summary, a great ride; We will definitely ride this section again in the future! 5 stars.
We rode from the North Lawrence parking area (which is tricky to find) to the east end of the levee trail. Then from there we rode to the River Front parking area before returning to our starting point. There were porta potties at each trailhead. The trail surface is compacted gravel. The wide trail is elevated above the surrounding area which enhances the view but which also gives you more exposure to the wind. The trail crosses under the Massachusetts street bridge. We enjoyed the east portion of the trail in particular because we had river forest on one side and farm fields on the other. We plan to ride this trail again in the future.
We rode from 119th St trailhead to the 135th St trailhead and back. There are excellent parking areas at each trailhead. Porta-potties were available at trailheads. The paved trail surface was excellent. There were some steep punchy climbs as the trail went from one side of the cedar creek valley to the other. At the time we rode the trail ( December 2025) there was a pipeline construction project underway. The construction crossed the trail in 2 spots but the temporary gravel surface was passable. The trail had us feeling that we were out in the wilderness..
This trail was absolutely a delight to ride. We stayed in Council Cove in an rv park by the trail. We rode 18 miles out and back. We rode past Bushong and almost to Allen. I wish we would have had more time to do more of the trail. Fall is my favorite season and the countryside was beautiful!!
Nice wide path for both biking & walking. Starting at the tennis courts for easy secure parking works great. Very clean, no issues with feeling unsafe or homelessness. Connects with Indian creek trail so can ride or walk for a long ways.
The blazing star were blooming profusely! Lots of butterflies and dragonflies. The trail was in good shape from Council Grove to the Rock Creek Bridge.
The trail is in good shape from Council Grove to the Rick Creek Bridge. Blazing Star is profuse and there were lots of butterflies and dragonflies.
We started at Mile Zero and rode out 15 miles and rode back. The trail is beautiful and well maintained but also has a rustic feeling to it. Most parts were crushed limestone and some parts were bigger gravel rock. Be prepared for no restrooms or official rest areas on this segment. We will definitely ride this trail again!
