Wonderful trail with a variety of different types of scenery. Lots of sub trails to explore. Nice parking area and bathroom facilities at Bond Park entry.
Trail goes from Smithfield Recreation and Aquatic center to Park on S2nd st. About 5 miles through mostly wooed area. Paved the entire way. Parking at both ends of trail. Nice short ride or walk.
This is a nice short trail that runs through the town of Louisburg, however, it needs repairs to the asphalt to minimize long term degradation

My wife and I are from Georgia and were looking forward to riding this trail. We didn't complete the entire trail, but we rode about 10 miles of it. It was a wonderfully nice, peaceful ride along a well-kept, clean trail. We took the connector to the Mingo Creek trail, then returned to finish at the Neuse River. We will definitely be back to ride the entire trail soon.
The greenway now extends to the southwest and ends at the Apex Nature Park. Overall length from Jaycee Park to Apex Nature Park is about 5 miles. Great nature ride. Well designed
Only rode 15 miles from Auburn-Knightdale to Milburne Dam and back but this is one of the very best trails for casual bicyclists. Paved. Wide. Scenic. Mostly shaded. Daily level with occasional hills that are a bit challenging for old and out-of-shapers but not too bad. Did not see a single electric terror bike--very unusual these days. Very friendly users (95% respond to greetings). Not many terrorizing "serious" riders. Great ride. Lots of bridges. Perfectly maintained.
good for walking and ok to see some sites. not very good if you try to ride at a higher pace.
Trail is on and off road. It sometimes is on sandy along trail. Good walking not so much biking. Hard to follow signs from road.
This was nirvana - great rtide starting at Ed Yerba park and connecting via the Cary Greenway to American Tobacco Trail - beautiful mural on the way to the trail as well - this was fantastic Jayant Bicyclists from Texas
