Started south end E.Lake Rd, end at Freeville Station. Nice variety, rural, flat, good signage, well maintained (cut grass, lots of benches). 1/2 shade, 1/2 open - 1 mi of grass, single-track, mostly cinders. Traveled past wetlands & lake. We saw ducks, lots of birds, bald eagle, young doe in creek, beaver dams. Good ice cream shop in Dryden. Nice 15 mile ride! Visiting from PA.
Well maintained short walk in the city ending at Fort Ontario. Includes an historic rail bridge over the Oswego River with great views. Would be 5 stars except the tunnel mentioned in the description is closed with no evidence that it’s going to be reopened.
This was an enjoyable trail a year ago with a natural grassed trail with flora and fauna along it's length. Now it is a gravel highway with trees and bushes dozed into a unsightely mess. Nothing pleasant about it anymore. I might as well ride on 590.
This is a great trail for a more or less level trail run. A decent bit of asphalt but way more gravel trail. Follow the blue blazes and you’ll run parallel to the Auburn trail which is way more fun - single track through the woods. There is a fun red blazed trail as well although it eventually gets cut off by an overgrown swampy area.
Rode the Catherine Valley Trail in September 2025. We began at the Tops grocery store in Watkins Glen and ended at a nice picnic area. The trail was mostly good shape except near the end where it was a little muddy and slippery. Nice trail would recommend.
Best part of our stop in Ithica. We enjoyed the trail. We started at Cass park and the reward was the beautiful Taughannock Falls. There were Ithica green deal bikes for rent at the trail head if you're in town without a bike.
Rode from Watkins Glen to the South end of Montour Falls. Map posted online is terrible. Trail is poorly marked. Several points between crushed stone path and paved public roads had no trail markings. Initial section from South end of WG is just a green tunnel. Nothing to see. Too much parking lot, highway, industrial area, downtown streets. Crushed stone section was well maintained.
This is a very good trail that needs maintenance. Chic the bridge and cut the fallen trees. The connection to the state park needs improvement Still worth the ride
This trail is on an old trolley line so the grades and curves are greater. The surfaces are as indicated on the description. The steep grade on the Dresden end needs a better surface. We rode on Cat Trikes and enjoyed the trail very much
We rode this whole trail (16+miles) on 9/14/25. The trail was amazing. There are a few spots with a significant amount of small gravel when my e-bike sunk into the gravel. Overall the trail was in great shape it the ride was truly enjoyable.
Have done this trail twice. Once last fall and September 2025. Nice trail that ends at north end of Seneca lake w nice lunch options in Geneva. There is a sign about a bridge being closed. It wasn’t but there were 2 holes that you need to avoid and need to be fixed. There also is a wooden switchback structure that gets you to a lower level that’s fun to ride (or walk). Follows the canal on one side and fields on the other.and very pretty in the fall
