Lots of shade along the way, a few dismount areas as you make it to where the path crosses the street.
This trail is “extending” the southern bike access to the American River boundary. The “current” maintenance on the I80 and railroad bridge(s) that cross the American River are ongoing for many years, restricting access to the trail. Still not complete (as of 8-11-25). Once this one mile-long stretch under both vehicle and train bridges is complete for pathed biking, this will be an excellent trail from Sutter’s Landing to Watt Avenue bridge. It will provide excellent biking possibilities for “loops” around stretches of the American River, accessing both sides of the river via the excellent Jedediah Smith/Twin Rivers trails. There are bridges currently for bikes to cross the American River at various locations. Apparently in the plans is a dedicated bike pathway over the I80 vehicle bridge. This will allow more opportunities to cross the river. Can’t wait for this opportunity to be complete!!!¿¿¿
this is a fantastic trail to have right outside my door pretty much. It’s multi use , but primarily it is used by joggers and bicyclists. I’ve been riding it for over 10 years and I never get tired of it. Every time I see something a little different or notice something, or something smells different or any number of other things. I go out to clear my head and take a little exercise and nature. I can’t tell you the number of interesting things that have happened out there but… quite a variety. I’ve seen all kinds of different birds and wildlife interesting people and various conveyances.
Started the trail at the water tower. Really nice to finally have a trail that connects to Sacramento. Had to cross streets but it was worth it for the ride.
I am fortunate to live a few blocks from the trail and I ride it every day. From Beal’s Point at Folsom Lake to the Aquatic Center at Lake Natoma takes you through shaded oaks and along the river. Start at Beal’s and ride to the Folsom Pedestrian Bridge, enjoy the stunning views of the river. You can cross the bridge into historic Folsom and stop for fantastic food at Karen’s Bakery, right on the trail, a favorite stopping point for bikers. Return across the bridge to the trail and through Black Miner’s park and picnic area right on the water. Continuing on, you’ll ride along the water then through lovely oak trees then come out along the river again as you approach Lake Natoma. You can cross Hazel Ave to the Aquatic Park/Beach. This connects to further trails if you want to continue. Both Black Miner’s and Aquatic parks have swimmingpicnicking/kayak rentals as well.
DO NOT plan to use this trail with inline skates. It was a disaster. Unless you own all terrain skates, these paths are better for walking, cycling.
Great views during the bike trail. My son and I went on a beautiful day. Stoped by old sac for some food on the way back from Discovery Park.
We really enjoyed this trail! Great views with lots of places to stop. And plenty of restrooms. We went during the week and there were a lot of people out there. I can imagine it gets pretty crowded on the weekends. But, we would definitely ride this one again.
Sure happy to have this path available for our communities. A great way to get out and get some fresh air and the views.
I’m from out of town and was looking for a trail on which we could walk our little dog. I was hoping for something flat, safe, well-maintained, and devoid of poison oak. This trail was all of that, with extra bonuses of wide pavement and absolutely gorgeous surroundings. All of us, including my dog, loved it. We’ll be coming back whenever we visit.
