Trail was well maintained and had great scenery. Perfect location next to hotels for those traveling to the area. Preferred it for running over biking.
I started in Tetonia. If I were to do it again, I would start in Ashton. The gentle elevation change is upwards from Ashton for a few miles. The Tetons are in your view in that direction. There is very little shade on the trail. The trail is hard dirt and gravel. Gravel bikes or mtn bikes suggested. No services on the trail. Traveling thru Ag country mostly flat. Biggest hills are on the detour road.
First time for this bike trail. We did pretty much the entire trail and found it very nice in areas and not so nice in others. One particular part of the trail just abruptly ended at the river with a Trail Closed for winter sign and this was in late June. The parts of the trail that wind through the city parks is nice but brief and there are several busy street crossings that we didn't like so well. I feel 4 stars is deserving for this trail.
The leaves were in their fall glory of colors. The ride was beautiful and the trail was great. We started from Tetonia. We will be back to do again.
We’re from TN vacationing in YNP Decided to see Mesa Falls & ride the trail since Bear Gulch Trailhead was approx 4-miles from Mesa Falls. Trail was beautiful. Almost as pretty as Route of Hiawatha. We had Mtn Bikes with zero problems.
Rode this trail June 2024 from Lamont to Tetonia. Gorgeous scenery of wide open lush farmland with the Tetons in the background. i chose this section because I didn't have enough time to do the full stretch and I wanted to see the bridge over Bitch Creek. It did not disappoint.
Tiny parking lots at Lamont and Felt enable you to jump on/jump off. It took me 2.5 hours on an e-bike but using the assistance at a minimum. There is a cafe in Tetonia if you are hungry when you arrive, or go another 7 miles to Driggs (no known bike path, but had our car there).
Trail is mostly gravel and only a few spots with loose sand. Definitely recommend!
Road 8 miles from Tetonia to Ashton where we were finally forced to turn around. The trail is gravel, yes, but variable sized rock which push tires sideways as well as rough. It’s also a two-track. I ride a recumbent trike which meant I always had a tire in the overgrown median. We turned around after we were overwhelmed by the thistles which hit us in the face and shoulders. On our return to Tetonia we met two groups. One was a family with 3 under 8 years. I thought how unfriendly the trail is to someone with a child trailer.
Today we rode towards Ashton to the 15-mile marker. This side is incredibly beautiful with the Tetons constantly looming in the background and the straw yellow fields making perfect contrast for pictures.
We rode from Ashton toward Tetonia to the 15-mile marker. It was a beautiful fairly flat rail trail. There was only one spot that diverted around private land. This diversion takes you on a few hilly spots for a couple of miles but all doable. There are two bridges on this stretch that cross lovely river gorges! And you have the backdrop of the Teton range in front of you on the way out. It’s ever so slightly climbing toward Tetonia so it was much faster on the way back to our van.
This was a fantastic trail. My husband and I completed on June 27 2023 from Ashton to Tetonia. The Tetons were in view the entire ride and the rolling fields and old homesteads felt like a trip back in time. I highly recommend this trail.
Happened to have a little extra time when passing through the area. Rode this once again and wonderful morning ride, past many flowers, grassy areas, shady trees, cool water, etc. See that some additional trail is being added to the South West end of the trail. More improvements to this all ready great trail. Will do again when the opportunity presents.
