This is a beautiful trail alongside the French Broad River but the massive damage from Hurricane Helene in Sept 2024 is still very evident. Several parks and trailheads closed and/or damaged. It does connect to the Wilma Dykeman Greenway; however, the intersection of Amboy Road and Lyman Street is downright dangerous with limited space for walkers or bikers and tons of vehicles. Add ongoing construction and it’s a recipe for disaster. I can only hope the improved renovations will include a bypass of this traffic intersection that for everyone’s safety
Enjoyed this trail through urban Asheville River Arts District, but it was broken up in a couple places still due to Hurricane Helene damage in 2024. Does have a nice section with dedicated bike lanes with a median away from the main road. Will eventually re-connect to the French Broad Greenway River Arts once repairs are completed.
Road 10 miles of this trail from the Gilky trailhead down into Forest City. Thoroughly enjoyed it – what a well done project especially the upper half where you can ride for miles without stopping. It was a cool overcast Sunday afternoon so not many people out and about, but frequent benches and areas to rest, especially in the lower half. Would highly recommend.
I did some recon on this trail on it's eastern edge and it was completely overgrown. Would make a nice project if you could get some money behind it. At this point, it's basically inaccessible.
This is our home trail and we ride it every Friday and Sunday.
We visited Biltmore yesterday, stayed the night in Asheville, then drove nearly an hour to this trail and glad we did. The trail is well maintained with clear markings. Only a few small areas were raised or bumpy and those were clearly marked with bright red spray paint. We wish all paved trails were in this good of condition! Rene’ and Greg
I tried three different locations to park and get on this trail. The very end as mentioned on this ABP gas station which shows an access trail which is very overgrown and the James Ross wildlife rehab which this app states there’s parking. None of which worked I do not recommend attempting to access this trail from York, South Carolina Carolina.
While I do not have firsthand knowledge of this trail, I learned from conversations with local residents that, except for portions of the trail in York, SC, much of the corridor is currently overgrown and undeveloped. A review of Google Maps satellite imagery appears to support those observations.
That is unfortunate, as the region would greatly benefit from a longer rail trail connecting communities and providing additional recreational opportunities. Hopefully, future development efforts will bring more of this historic rail corridor back into public use.
