Just read a bridge is closed on greenway. Wish somehow this app was able to show updates on its trail map.
This was our first trail to try out our Ebikes. We parked at Smith Park and got on the trail. It is paved and well maintained. There is a restroom along the way. There are a few bridges and tunnels. The trail is marked where there are sharp curves. As we got closer to the part that passes by the YMCA the trail got more crowded with walkers etc. But we just went slow. We enjoyed it. Saw a deer.
Very scenic ride along the Cumberland River. The best time to ride it to view the river is in the Spring and Fall when the trees are bare. The course is relatively flat and easy. I would recommend that you ride a mountain or hybrid bike. There are several exposed roots, so shocks are preferred but certainly not required. The section at the end of Eagle pass is closed so you can no longer ride to the Cheatham Dam.
Overall, it is a nice experience.
We went on a weekday and there were not many people on the trail which made it very pleasant and enjoyable. The trail is very well maintained with flat surfaces. This is a wonderful scenic trail with a few bridges over running creeks, plenty of tree lined portions and a wildlife center along the way. We parked at the Harpeth Valley Golf course and started from there as the soccer field parking lot was closed that day. Lovely experience for all ages and levels.
Have ridden most of the greenway trails in and around Nashville and the Harpeth River Greenway is one of my favorites. Can start your ride at either end (Bellevue or at Edwin Warner Park). Not too crowded except, as expected at the beginning of the trail but it thins out the further you get away from the parking lots. Of course on beautiful sunny fall or spring days, particularly on the weekends, you will find dodging walkers and runners, but that is expected on most greenway trails in and around Nashville. At a more advance age with mobility issues, I like the fact that the trail is flat and mostly covered, except for the portion on the west side of the trail. But in my younger years you could get your heartbeat up by deviating into either Percy of Edwin Warner Pasks
Markings for trail not there. We just looped the park. More signs are needed.
This trail is listed as good for in-line skating, but a large section of the trail is very rough / old pavement, and much of the rest of it has long hills and sharp turns.
This is a nice walking trail and is paved. Safe area and right behind the downtown area of Erin. Sweet little town.
We rode this trail in May 2023. We accessed the northwest end of the trail via Freeland Station Road. It appears that the trail continues past this point but it is not shown on the map. We followed the trail northeast, east and southeast towards downtown Nashville. After a few miles we passed several homeless encampments in the wooded areas. When we reached the downtown area near 2nd St and Cement Plant Road we were met with construction debris. We found no clear description of where we were, where we might go and what we might see. We returned to the trailhead.
Prior to reaching the homeless encampment, the paved trail follows the curve of the river. Wildlife is visible on and along the river.
It would have been great if the trail were marked and we would have been able to ride the trail into the Broadway downtown area, Ryman Auditorium, etc.
This trail is paved and easy to ride. Beautiful trail. I loved every part of it. It connects several parks together. Lots of shady areas and resting places.
We loved this ride and found it extra fun to bike down an old airplane runway!
