I ride this several times a week from my house. It's a fantastic ride, especially before the sun comes up. I've seen deer, skunks, a weasel of some sort and kittens.
Great scenery, proximity to restaurants, a park, a bookstore, and the library.
Overnight in OKC with our cruisers. Smooth, paved trail with little change in elevation. Windy in April, and on the north side of the river lots of highway noise. So, nice path along the River, but otherwise not very interesting. Path not busy but cyclists who passed us gave no warning.
We experienced a small portion of the Bricktown Canal Trail on a quiet, pedestrian-free morning in early October. I stress "pedestrian free" since we did not see or pass a single pedestrian on this designated Pedestrian Only pathway. (It's my understanding that the Canal Trail is the downtown hotspot at night when the restaurants and bars are packed.)
FULL DISCLOSURE: Even though the trail is designated for pedestrians only, we utilized a very small pedestrian-free segment of the Canal Trail on our bikes.
I suppose the trail is perfect for tourists wandering around Bricktown seeing the sights and wanting to get in some steps, and for the evening revelers as well, but it's way too short for anyone thinking about biking it UNLESS you combine it with other routes and downtown sites which is precisely what we did.
We took advantage of Ryan's expertise and his rideOKC.com to pedal around on his Art and Architecture Tour. This was truly the way for us to enhance our knowledge about the history of the city and state, and its people, culture, monuments, and art. His routes through the city were safe, and it was definitely the way for a couple of sixty-somethings from SoCal to familiarize themselves with the various downtown sections of OKC and its Bricktown Canal Trail!
The pros: felt safe, not crowded, convenient location, relatively wide and flat, good graffiti
The cons: very hot and sunny, not scenic, industrial with construction and service truck parking lots, lots of stinky smells including the North Canadian River, can hear the roar of the highway
Nice pavement, a bench every once in a while, and beautiful green views. Really enjoy jogging this path. Not many people which is great and adds to the solitude.
The trail is well kept and nice. I only saw two other bikers. I wish it was longer or connected to other routes. I'll def bike it again.
Smooth pavement with clearly marked lanes for pedestrians and things with wheels. Nice inclines/declines. Entering the trailhead by Integris is a little bit confusing as you have to travel through the Integris parking lot to get to the trailhead parking area. Signs are clearly marked though. Highly recommended!
The trails have just been resurfaced.{January 2021} Very nice and safe
It goes from campus to Robinson past the library and along the railroad track
