I parked by the Veteran's Park and rode this trail in July. The west end was nice with the round-about, sculptures and railroad items. Going east the surface was concrete for a while. When it crossed Curtis St, it changed to gravel. The gravel section varied or alternated between a little on the rough side to smoother crushed or packed gravel or dirt. All was manageable. (My tires were 35). The trail loosely followed along Hwy 20/East Yellowstone Hwy so hearing traffic noise is to be expected. A rider does have to go over cattle guards twice since there is open range for cattle in between them, but it was a short distance. I didn't see any cattle and it wasn't a problem. At the east end, it just ends near a dirt road called S Pou Rd. Turn around and enjoy the ride back.
At that intersection of Curtis St where it changes from concrete to gravel, there is a gas station with convenience store (Loaf 'N Jug). Sorry, I don't know the mileage of it in relationship to the Veteran's Park. That was the only place along the trail easily accessible for food, water and restrooms. I did not see restrooms at the Veteran's Park and I didn't explore buildings at the west end. Time constraints limited me to just riding the trail. Other eateries were a little farther off from the trail.
Discovered this comfortable place with great accommodations for two bike travelers. They offer a pullout sofa if you do not wish to share a bed. Indoor bike storage with a comfy bed and a hot shower! Distillery right next-door and two restaurants to fuel up in the morning to get back on the trail. Close to the panhandle of West Virginia. Their name is Harmony Trail Haven on Airbnb.
Ok section, kind of dull. Agriculture & cows. Found a bit of shade by a grain elevator for lunch. Several washouts filled with tumbleweeds as you get closer to Lind.
We started in Akron and rode about 18 miles north. Loved it!!!
Nice ride along the river although industrial in places. Not well marked in spots…. Look for faint traces of blue paint. We got two flats from “goat heads”. Resulted in a trip to Mountain sports in Casper and $220 worth of Tannus liners. Ouch.
We ( recumbent trike & e-bike) headed West from the Kiwanis park. Turned around after 9km as the surface was really tough on the trike. There’s 2 good wheel tracks for bikes, but the trike had to ride partially in the coarse trail ballast. Scenic area with farm views and a huge windmill farm in the distance.
Great trails, lots of directions to travel. Some concrete and other asphalt surfaces, as well as some gravel. You can pretty much see all of Casper from this trail.
Great short trail, nice asphalt surface, wide enough to pass easily.
Very nice trail with concrete and asphalt surface. Wide enough to pass others easily. Great views of Casper from across the river.
Surprised to see this amazing trail that has great bed and breakfasts along it is not noted as part of the Great American Rail Trail. It sure would help demonstrate more GART completion if it was.
A nice ride. The hub is a good place to start.
