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
I’d give this greenway 4/5 stars. Parts have been re-paved but there are still some areas of broken asphalt and pot holes. If you start from the Asheville side, it is a steep ride down. Think more than Virginia Creeper Trail plus. The parking area is very limited to off the shoulder gravel. The Old Fort side has a less clearly marked parking near a church and is a very steep incline the entire way up. There are several nice benches with beautiful views along the way. There are areas washed out likely due to Helene so vigilance always near the shoulders. I’d recommend as long as you realize what you are facing.
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
We rode from Travelers Rest to Greenville. Looks like lots of places to eat and drink but we rode early. It was pretty crowded on both ends but nice and calm in the middle. Be prepared to dodge runners, walkers, and strollers. And an occasional high speed e bike. If you’re looking for a place to increase your fitness, this probably isn’t it. If your looking to just cruise and maybe get a beer your good to goandsomething to eat
We hit the trail about 9 am for an out and back ride. Pretty quiet early on a Monday morning. Gentle slopes but no big climbs. My wife had a good time on her pedal assist e-bike. A few road crossings but only one busy at the Easley end of the trail. We rode from Pickens to Easley and back. Plenty of parking on the Pickens end. I was able to park my class C camper pretty easily.
There were a few spots if you wanted to have a seat otherwise just somewhere paved to get some steps in. There’s supposed to be some additions coming.
Started at the Hendersonville visitor center and headed out. Fill your water bottles and use the restrooms at this really nice visitor center! Very well marked trail with lots of safe crossings for the roads! Super wide super smooth asphalt so no issues bypassing pedestrians and other cyclists! Rode all the way to the end and found a pumpkin patch! Since we were on our bikes, I only purchased five small ones for two dollars each! We also stopped by the farm stand trail side, and got some of the best Golden delicious apples we’ve ever had! Beautiful rail trail……kudos to Hendersonville because there were 1000 people using it on this stunning Saturday! It has a brewery, playground, coffeehouse, Quik Mart, all on the side of the trail if you need anything. We really enjoyed the countryside! A winner for a Saturday early Fall bike ride!
