My wife and I rode the Shortlineline trail on a recent visit to Yellowstone. We had a terrific time. The scenery was breathtaking. Especially the parts of the trail that ran next to the South Fork of the Madison river. The trail ascends at a very gentle 1% to 3% grade. But we were super impressed with how well maintained the trail is and the informational signs along the way were excellent and very interesting. Personally, we were kind of grateful that E bikes are not permitted on the trail. I’m sure that’s somewhat controversial, but it definitely meant that this experience for us was extremely peaceful and quieted our souls.
Trail was well maintained and had great scenery. Perfect location next to hotels for those traveling to the area. Preferred it for running over biking.
I started in Tetonia. If I were to do it again, I would start in Ashton. The gentle elevation change is upwards from Ashton for a few miles. The Tetons are in your view in that direction. There is very little shade on the trail. The trail is hard dirt and gravel. Gravel bikes or mtn bikes suggested. No services on the trail. Traveling thru Ag country mostly flat. Biggest hills are on the detour road.
Coming From Warm River Campground, the Trail goes up gently 3.5 miles to the collapsed Tunnel. The trail continues till about mile 6 all along with great views of the river and deep canyon. I continued riding till about mile 12.5 and returned. After about mile 6, the trail leveled off and continued thru cattle pastures and flat land with 2 ponds. The trail was mostly hard dirt with gravel. A Gravel bike or Mountain Bike would be suitable bike. No services or water on the route.
First time for this bike trail. We did pretty much the entire trail and found it very nice in areas and not so nice in others. One particular part of the trail just abruptly ended at the river with a Trail Closed for winter sign and this was in late June. The parts of the trail that wind through the city parks is nice but brief and there are several busy street crossings that we didn't like so well. I feel 4 stars is deserving for this trail.
The leaves were in their fall glory of colors. The ride was beautiful and the trail was great. We started from Tetonia. We will be back to do again.
We’re from TN vacationing in YNP Decided to see Mesa Falls & ride the trail since Bear Gulch Trailhead was approx 4-miles from Mesa Falls. Trail was beautiful. Almost as pretty as Route of Hiawatha. We had Mtn Bikes with zero problems.
Rode all the trails in Driggs. Kind of lame. I invented my own trails.
Some of the trail needs maintenance. Overall a good ride. Lots of road traffic but the speed limit is 45 so it’s ok for noise
The ride is ok thus it got 2 stars. The surface was poorly layed and requires a lot of concentration to not wreck
Rode this trail June 2024 from Lamont to Tetonia. Gorgeous scenery of wide open lush farmland with the Tetons in the background. i chose this section because I didn't have enough time to do the full stretch and I wanted to see the bridge over Bitch Creek. It did not disappoint.
Tiny parking lots at Lamont and Felt enable you to jump on/jump off. It took me 2.5 hours on an e-bike but using the assistance at a minimum. There is a cafe in Tetonia if you are hungry when you arrive, or go another 7 miles to Driggs (no known bike path, but had our car there).
Trail is mostly gravel and only a few spots with loose sand. Definitely recommend!
