Eureka Trail

Beautiful and dusty!

April, 2025 by digitalpubs

We loved the trail and rode it round trip multiple times to train for our Katy trail tour. We and our bikes got really dusty and dirty, but that wasn’t a big deal. Do be careful at the traffic crossings.

Holston River Greenway (Holston River Park)

We love walking this trail. You have the quiet walk in the woods. Wide paths. We walk through thr woods and then walk by the water and around the outside loop. One of our go to places to walk.

Melton Lake Greenway

Work Off Winter Fluff

March, 2025 by mlawlor72

This is a great trail for working off your winter fluff - it is challenging in areas with hills which for those of us who spent the winter either shoveling snow or hibernating (me) came as a surprise! The trail itself is paved with asphalt or concrete slabs. The asphalt areas have tree roots humps and bumps accompanied with a couple heaves. The poured concrete slabs were in decent shape.

Maryville-Alcoa Greenway

September, 2024 by er_jacks

I went on a Saturday in the beginning of September (mid morning) and it was barely crowded. Perfect for me for my long run. I did have to ask someone for directions just to make sure I was on the right track to Alcoa. I guess the only time I got confused was when it travels over 411 and there isn’t a lot of signage to tell where the trail goes next. Other than that it was perfect for me!!! I felt generally safe, as being a woman who was running by herself. There isn’t a TON of hills, but there are more just condensed in certain areas

Maryville-Alcoa Greenway

Brother could you spare a sign?

September, 2024 by norwag17_tl

Signage is minimal at best. Surface is nice and so are the bridges. Good amount of traffic with walkers, runners, dogs and bikers. I had my bike and found it difficult to find my way around due to lack of signage. It was my first time on this trail and I am sure the local users enjoy it, but for me it will be better next time (if there is one).

Visiting from Ohio

Loved this trail for biking! We started at the Clayton Disc Golf course and rode to the Waterfront Bar & Grill for a bite to eat before heading back! Be sure to look for the Gnome House along the way!

June, 2023 by mleblanc4_tl

Starts down town travels 3+ miles mostly next to active track. Ok ride not too hard to follow. Will be nice when lengthened. Good parking lots at both ends. Trail has great potential
