Started at the Discovery Center and headed north. Niagara put in a greenway path along the old path and it meanders parallel and in and out of the old trail. Such beauty. App needs updating for it though.
We spent the weekend in Buffalo trying different trails and this one was our favorite. We accidentally went into Beaver Island State Park and started there (whoops), but if you take the right in the traffic circle right before the park entrance you’ll find a parking about a 1/2 mile down the road. The trail itself is amazing. It’s like a small road and travels 8 miles along the waterfront. It was just awesome!
The only negative is that many roots are rising up and starting to break through the pavement. So, some spots are a little bumpy. Otherwise it’s enjoyable.
Cycled northern 6 miles and returned 6 miles to Pavilion at Little Valley..
North end wormed under downed tree across trail and over another tree.
Again no asphalt, grass not cut, no mile markers, no amenities going north
5 Star Needs to Be Removed Again No Asphalt

We had high hopes for this trail and were disappointed. The parking area is a little sketchy and the trail itself is bumpy gravel. Some of it was just grass with big stones throughout. We actually turned around after about 3 miles because we thought we might blow a tire. Seems like it has potential but it is not maintained at all. The pictures are deceiving.
As others have said, the short paved part is beautiful. The rest is larger rocks surface in many areas and the path is very narrow. I’ve ridden some rough paths before but this one takes the cake. I turned around after one mile and decided that it wasn’t for me.
A very well maintained linear park. A lot of road crossings though. Not scenic but pleasant. At the north end follow the signs to continue to the canal trail and to the Niagara River
Sections of the trail were washed out and provided poor footing for a run. Trail is closed just north of the Whirlpool Bridges
Trail has high potential but needs a lot of work. Large stones make it mostly unrideable and almost dangerous to walk. Mostly used as snowmobile trail in winter.
The west shore trail was beautiful, passing through forested areas, biking through Clarence Park, then towards Akron junction and ended up at Bistro 93 where we had a delicious lunch and great conversation with the owners (we highly recommend stopping!) and then back. We did not venture to the peanut line, but will be back to ride that trail!
trail is closed through what used to be lasalle park, is now maybe ralph wilson park? has been closed for at least 2 years and will remain closed for a least another year.
