This trail is great for walking not riding. Only 2 miles but you get two tunnels. The old rail line has 4 tunnels going to wheeling wv
Ok section, kind of dull. Agriculture & cows. Found a bit of shade by a grain elevator for lunch. Several washouts filled with tumbleweeds as you get closer to Lind.
We started in Akron and rode about 18 miles north. Loved it!!!
This trail has much improved and is open to Lost Creek, the “single track “ area is not bad at all. Wife and I started at Va park and went to Lost Creek, turned around after a stop and the little convenient store and heading back 19.8 total miles and no issues. We both ride fat tire e-bikes and in our mid 60’s
West Union area is paved both directions for a few miles, if heading west towards Pennsboro/Ellenboro trail is both hard pack. The tunnel just outside of West Union was pretty dry (2200+) and should have a light to be safe. Trail is mostly under canopy with some rock cliffs, creek view and wildlife can be seen. Fat tire makes it a comfortable, enjoyable ride
Rode eastern 17 miles east then west (Smithurg to Wolf Summit). Generally well maintained. Only two washouts at driveways. Minimal pot holes, etc. The eastern most tunnel is severely washed out from water running back through the tunnel but passable. Our tandem bike has 2.5 inch tires and at 10 to 15 mph, our typical speed, it was like riding a vibrating machine. Did not feel out of control from too deep of stone or tires slipping side ways off big stones if I watched vigilantly and chose trail tracks carefully. But having to be so watchful of the trail detracted from the ride. Decided to skip the rest of the trail for now. They really need to find stone for the trail that is more appropriate for biking.
Came up from Wheeling. We did this trail to the finish as it was only a few miles before the end and turnaround. About half the time on the street. But the town had good signage and what was very impressive was yellow lines on the road! I wish more towns would do that. Older trail and some bumps but I was impressed by the markings. Not very busy on the streets so safe for riding.
Nice for walking and biking. I’m glad they have a paved and off-road option. If you split off from the paved trail, you can find your way to the river front. The abandoned buildings do have squatters so I would recommend staying on the paved trail if you are by yourself. There are pull up bars and exercise stations throughout the paved course as well.
We ( recumbent trike & e-bike) headed West from the Kiwanis park. Turned around after 9km as the surface was really tough on the trike. There’s 2 good wheel tracks for bikes, but the trike had to ride partially in the coarse trail ballast. Scenic area with farm views and a huge windmill farm in the distance.
Nice, paved trail. Great scenery and remote location make for a wonderful summer evening ride. Looking forward to going back this fall.
Rained yesterday but trail was in good shape, headed towards Ellenboro then back. Rode the other direction to Cairo. It was a Friday so some of the stores not open. Continued for 2-3 miles past Cairo almost to the next tunnel. This section is not as maintained as the park area but was very rideable. Very enjoyable We do have fat tire /full suspension which does help in some of the areas close to Cairo but would not be a deal breaker without.
