On March 12, 2025, my wife and I cycled on the ERT. On red gate Avenue under the tall evergreens, her tire was caught in a deep tree route and threw her to the left side. A half hour later she was at the Centra emergency room where she was diagnosed with three broken ribs, hematoma, and her left side a gash to the right knee and multiple bruises. We hope that the officials and trail advocates in Norfolk will take notice ; please post a warning, paint, the dangerous ridges and make plans to repair the section of the trail. A large bush blocked our view until we were right on these obstacles as we headed toward the hay. This was a very traumatic experience. To
The trail is a mix of trail and low traffic streets. When we first started riding it, we had no trouble following the signage. The trail takes you through old Norfolk neighborhoods, through Old Dominion University, along ship yards, to the Norfolk Waterfront, and ends at Norfolk State University. Only reason not 5 Stars is it doesn’t loop.
I enjoyed the walk it is very scenic and it has plenty of greenery to view. I am from up North and enjoyed the trail. It is well marked and easy to follow.
I went on a Wednesday around 1:00pm so there was no one there. The trail is perfectly paved and plenty wide.
We road this trail in early November. We started at the Weldon end. And it was a bit challenging for this 66YO who had about 70 miles on the new e-bike. There were several areas through the ride that were narrow and Rory. Also the leaves were crazy. I would definitely recommend using caution if you do not have a mountain bike. On our way back with about 2.5 miles left I hit a sharp turn howling downhill and and leaf covered. I wiped out pretty good but other then bruises and sticker vine scratches I was on and so was the bike… nice trail but need some TLC.
The trail path is paved. This would be a good trail for training to do longer trails on a road bike. It is a safe, clean, and beautiful trail through nature. The trail is approximately 3.5 miles from end to end per my "igsport IGS360" bike computer.
Husband and I went for the first time and it was horrible. We started biking a few weeks ago. Did not like the bike trail here. While I understand it’s a nature trail it is not for any bike. Roots sticking up out of the ground 6inches high. Your not supposed to ride bikes on the nice flat trail but we ended up doing just that. Trails for bikes are not marked well either. My husband flipped his bike on one of the hills. Will not be going back for the bike trail that’s for sure.
Pack sand and crushed stone. A bit of roll and some roots. Plenty of shade. Fairly good signage. Just fine with a trail bike.
Very stressful trail! Terrible signage, MANY street crossings, some closures, rough in many parts.
