Wabash Trace Nature Trail

Great trail. Bring water.

June, 2025 by chad143

The trail is really nice. It is very quiet without any crowds. I rode from Council Bluffs to Shenandoah and only saw a few people on the entire trail. One thing that surprised me was how little water was available on the trail. In rode 45 miles of the trail and did not see a single water fountain or bottle filler the entire time. I had to buy water at Casey’s to fill my bottles.

Jamaica North Trail

Beautiful woodsy trail

June, 2025 by kristiflakes

This is my absolute favorite Lincoln trail. It is very woodsy and filled with birds and other wildlife. (Personally, I love riding on limestone and the dirt paths.) There are so many opportunities to join a Wilderness Park dirt path, beautiful bridges and lots of shade.

MoPac Trail East

WOW!

June, 2025 by berylmassage

I was on the MoMac Trail East this morning. It was easy to find. The parking spot was adjacent to a bathroom. The weather was perfect. And the scenery was magnificent. I wish I was here for longer so I could do more of it! What a blessing!

Salt Creek Levee Trail

A good trail, nowhere close to living to its full potential

January, 2025 by rivet_compass9b

As a biker, I appreciate the route that this trail takes. It’s not the most scenic, but it certainly is scenic nonetheless, not so much in nature, but in old historic views. My pet peeve, and it’s a big one, is that it’s crushed limestone. This would be forgivable if it were a straight trail, but it’s one of the curviest out of all the bike trails. It also has parts where the surface is actually slanted, which is frankly unreliable if you’re not ready for it. I watched one of my buddies with my own eyes slide across the limestone surface and down the bank of Salt Creek (yes he was ok) when he rounded a bend too fast. This will all be avoided if they would finish paving this trail like they started to do with the northern area of it, and that alone would add two extra stars to the rating, possibly all three depending on if they fix the slant of the surface

Oak Lake Connector Trail

not much, but does the job, like N. 1st St. Trail in line with it

January, 2025 by rivet_compass9b

It provides a quick way to get from UNL campus to the Highlands, where several of my buddies live. As a biker, I appreciate that it’s paved. I also like it runs next to Oak Lake, although I wish it provided an alternative route around the lake to get some extra scenery. It is also my opinion that this could and should be the same trail as N. 1st St. Trail, but they decided to separate these two by a small section of sidewalk. Oh well.

North 1st Street Trail

Not much here, but it gets the job done

January, 2025 by rivet_compass9b

It’s all that they don’t directly connect this to the trail that runs next to Oak Lake. That said, there is a sidewalk that connects them, and I’m not so petty to complain riding on the sidewalk for a couple hundred feet. This way takes you after the Superior St., Trail and Highland Loop, which is useful. For me at least, despite being boring, it gets a bonus star for being literally the only quick way to connect me from UNL Campus to some of my buddies in the Highlands.

Superior Street Trail

feels a bit utilitarian (mostly because Superior Street is boring) but it has some interesting places

January, 2025 by rivet_compass9b

As the title says, the trail itself feels a little bit utilitarian. I probably wouldn’t pick this one to go on a fun leisurely ride. That said, I’m very glad this is here, because I don’t want to ride in the road and I hate riding sidewalks. There are times when you need to take this direction to get to places, whether they be stores like The Home Depot near 27th and Superior, or other trails like Highland Loop or Dietrich Connector. I also appreciate this trail is paved.

Rock Island Trail (NE)

Lincoln‘s best trail and my favorite

January, 2025 by rivet_compass9b

As the title states, what else can I say. This trail is simply perfect as far as bike trails go. I expect most people will probably get onto this trail via Helen Boosalis. In that case, you have two equally good routes to take, north or southwest. Both make for perfect round trips because they connect seamlessly with other trails, SouthPoint at the south and Billy Wolff at the north. This is also the most scenic trail out of all of them, with the possible exception of Jamaica North that runs through Wilderness Park. But what ranks this trail higher is the paved, well maintained surface. With the exception of Helen Boosalis, this is by far the trail that I feel safest on, despite being secluded for at least a portion of the ride. You go through a woody area that are just absolutely beautiful, and there are a lot of runners and other bikers.

Helen Boosalis Trail

Close contender for my second favorite trail

January, 2025 by rivet_compass9b

For starters, this trail is literally right next to my house. It’s definitely my most used and easily accessible trail. But more than that, it’s also fun to ride. It starts as a branch off from the Old Cheney Trail and heads west (as well as slightly north). It’s very relaxing and nature-scenic despite being next to Nebraska Parkway (formerly Highway 2). As another reviewer noted, it sits slightly lower, so you don’t feel that you’re next to 50 mph traffic and you don’t hear all that noise right in your face. It’s also the best way to get to my favorite, the Rock Island Trail. And if you continue past Rock Island, it continues west right up to basically 14th St., which provides the only western bike route to connect you to the Bison Trail that leads to Pioneer’s Park.
