This trail was very good, highly recommend for people. The gap in between has lots of areas to eat, so you can’t get hungry. Some of the fast food places and grocery stores are McDonald’s, Burger King, Wendy’s, Arby’s, Subway, Kroger, and ALDI. Just a note, this trail can reach around 10 miles farther than what the trail says, if you start at Fansler Park in Rochester. Very well paved, not many bumps. It would take about 25 miles to reach Peru, which is the middle town. The road section is pretty short, around 3-3.5 miles. From there, it will take you another 20-ish miles to reach the end. However, the end leads to another trail, which goes to a splash pad and some parks, great for the early summer and late spring. We visited in the fall, but you might have an even better experience in the warmer seasons.
I rode this trail south from the Muncie Depot, on 9/18/25. 2 blocks south the trail was diverted onto side streets due to construction of a new overpass. No apparent detour signs going south, so I had a bit of a time finding my way. This trail is ok, but showing signs of ageing, with numerous bad cracks in the pavement that need some attention. I would advise riding north from the depot until construction is finished (maybe late 2026?). Depot has bathroom and a gift shop.
loved riding this trail (except for the crowds on the trail for Carmel Days). My only complaint was the poorly placed trail marker where the trail made a hard right turn north of Carmel near Rt 32. The bathroom facility at 96th Street was outstanding.
Colfax to Sugar Creek nice and smooth, from Suram Plant rd to Lebanon nice and smooth! The section maintained by Thorntown has trees over growing the trail and many many bumps . The trail needs a repaving. Thorntown section runs from Sugar Creek to Suram plant rd. I called the Thorntown,s clerks office (only open Tuesday) and reported the problem. They said trees removal will be next week Issue back by September
We parked at the 69th Street Trailhead. We went north & it was a shady and a scenic ride. Carmel had restaurants next to the trail. Lots of walkers, cycles, & dogs. Very nice trail.
Great trail with beautiful views of nature. Largo has a nice bistro to stop for a rest and enjoy a nice meal.
This is a nice trail, well maintained & good signage in both directions on the short road section.
My husband and I rode this trail on 8-22-25. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and thought the trail was relatively well maintained. Some have complained about branches and rough surfaces but we did not find it bad at all. We are used to riding country roads in much worse conditions. We rode to Colfax and stopped to enjoy a meal at Pizza King. I highly recommend this stop! It had a small town friendliness and great service. We enjoyed a sub sandwich, salad, breadsticks, and milkshake. The breadsticks were outstanding as well as the handcrafted shakes- so many flavors from which to choose. We split the buckeye shake and it was delicious!
On my way from PA to WI I decided to stop in Indianapolis, IN. I decided to ride the Monon Trail to the Cultural Trail in downtown, to the Canal Walk and reverse. I absolutely loved the ride, enjoyed riding through the city, and really liked all the murals and art as I was riding. As I was riding south and getting closer to downtown Indianapolis, there were a lot of road crossings, however I will say this was one of the most courteous places to bike, almost every car stopped to let bikers cross. If I ever come back to Indianapolis I would definitely ride this trail again. It is in one of my top 5 trails. Definitely worth doing if you are in Indianapolis.
