Fun ride for the whole family. Small streams on both sides east of fish lake.
I rode this trail in the opposite direction as part of a multi-day bikepacking trip in July 2025. In general, the whole thing is pretty flat/slightly uphill, with the section between Marble Creek and Avery on Siberts Old River Road adding a little bit of up and down hills. The road is rocky and tough on the arms. I had 700x40 inch tires on a carbon gravel bike and definitely felt it that night. We averaged around 11 MPH, imagine you could do better going the downhill route. Spectacular views, particularly between Pearson and Avery, where you go through about seven tunnels and have towering pine-covered mountains and a deep river canyon below.
Good ride that connects you to the Centennial Trail. Nice and wide with easy road crossings
Me and my family grew up camping on Lake Chatcolet and biking this trail. We love making a stop in Harrison for the delicious ice cream at Harrison Creamery & Fudge Factory
We rode 8 miles from Mirabeau Park which is just east of Pines road to Freya. The trail is very nice however you lose it to streets in a few places which aren’t marked. East of Mirabeau you will find yourself dropped out onto Maringo Drive a quiet neighborhood street. In four blocks you’ll need to cross the very busy 4 lane traffic of Argonne Road, which has no marked crosswalk. Continue west on Maringo Drive which will drop you onto Upriver Drive. Again, there are no Centennial Trail signs to show you are following the correct route. Continue westbound until you arrive at Boulder Beach. From there you will find the actual trail with the signage resume.
My husband and I love this route, however at the beginning of the route for at least a quarter of a mile, there are “cuts” across the road in the asphalt, which are very jarring and really annoying. Maybe they’re put there to channel the water off of the trail; I would’ve given the trail five stars had it not been for those The rest of the trail is an absolute dream. If you follow the trail a little bit farther past the dam, you will come to the Nine Mile Falls recreation area, which is perfect for a picnic lunch. Enjoy!
This is so far a beautiful, we'll maintained trail, but there's some deep gravel and where it goes along a new highway being built there are a lot of construction trucks and no signage. Hopefully they'll put in more and bigger directional signs.
Rode the trail on June 15, 2025. Several spots need to be patched along rough spots from tree roots. Most rough spots and cracks are well marked but without regular maintenance this trail will keep getting worse. Ir should go without saying but DO NOT stop in the middle of the trail. Step or ride to the edge to make room for traffic. During my ride a group of adults and children literally blocked the whole trail and were clueless to anyone else on the trail. Be RESPECTFUL of others. There are too many other well maintained trails in the area to consider this trail an option.
We had a wonderful ride on this trail. It is short but the scenery is beautiful as it winds along the Palouse River through woods and along farms.
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.
