I rode this trail on September 16, 2024. The signs on the trail are present but on "first look" can be missed by the uninitiated and once read are still slightly confusing. The signs are simply "waist high mile marker posts " showing directional arrows and text point to both access roads nearby (there are many!) as well as general trail direction. So read the signs carefully your first time out! The needed info is on these posts, albeit in a confusing manner.
The trail has "a few smaller hills" that should be considered closer to beginner level: they are not exceedingly long or tall for most folks. The majority of the trail trends as flat IMO.
The trail is fun to ride and certainly has scenic beauty. The trail path is a bit wider than I expected and the surface is in excellent shape at the time of my ride.
My greatest challenge was finding the zero mile starting point! The trail map on this web site, and on Google maps, are both technically incorrect. The trail's actual starting point is in the EH Young Riverfront Park parking lot, immediately east of the Argosy Casino property, next to the restrooms and the river. This park is also, by far, the best place to park anywhere on the southern part of the trail.
The trail is very conveniently close to the Hilton Garden Inn I was staying at.
The first mile is ok, starts around mile marker 11.2. Turned right. The trail is cement and in good condition.
The surroundings get better as you progress (counting down).
Once you get to MM 10, you are in an open field area, alongside a meandering creek.
I really enjoyed the portion past MM 9 all the way to MM 7.6 The trail transitions back and forth from cement to crushed stone.
The stone parts are good, but a little precarious in a couple spots.
Several small bridges that pass over the creek(s) are nice and in good condition.
The part that passes behind the football fields is cool.
I plan to revisit and park at the lot near MM 8 and adventure further down the trail.
I want to give this trail more than five stars! A lot of it is curvy and hilly through woods and along water. I can’t think of anything this trail lacks. I started at the trailhead at Waukomis Drive and road north, then turned back and rode south to the casino and back. This first couple hills got me a bit winded and it seemed it was mainly uphill going north. I rode on a Saturday morning threatening rain, I saw a lot of walkers but few cyclists. I relied on Trailink map to keep me on the trail. Super stoked to ride it again! Traveling cyclist Facebook
I turned off Line Creek Trail to check this trail out. It’s great for the locals to access the Line Creek Trail. It is very short but 5 stars from me. Traveling cyclist Facebook
I biked the streets of KC which are all under construction. I did 21.5 miles. Never really found the trail & I looked. If you stay in town you can bike from a hotel.
Extra wide sidewalk for bikes too. Not very smooth but leads to I-Alan park and path connecting to TC trail.
Detours from 69 construction make this confusing to get to where you want to go. Hopefully when the construction is done it will be easier. Need some better Detour signs. Nice ride thru the trees.
Great trail for inline speed skating or just regular inline skating. It wasn't crowded, and the people that I passed responded well to my bike bell (also, slow down and be polite as you pass ¿)
Little Blue Trace Trail is closed between Bunch Road Parking and Fisher Road 2 1/2 miles north of the Fisher entrance because of bridge damage.
Gravel rode this to connect to rock island trail. Nice option to stay off the roads when traveling from Arrowhead stadium to Windsor.
Used this trail to connect from arrowhead stadium to Windsor Katy trailhead. Needed to ride roads from Lee summit to pleasant hill. Trail after pleasant hill has almost no service. But great trail and highly recommend!
