Great trail... I started at Jenny's Creek trailhead, I didn't see another biker on the whole way up to Tippy Top Tunnel.. (it said no trespassing, but I just had to check it out).. it was 25 miles to the tunnel.. I just wished that it went all the way through the tunnel, but was told later by someone that the tunnel had a cave in, so I don't suppose it will ever be a complete connection (sad) that would have been fun to ride through there.. but I started on my way back down and finally ran into another biker, he's the one who told me the history of the tunnel and how he use to ride horses through there.. ran into a group of riders, about 30 of them on the way back down.. I say down because i coasted a lot of the distance in a lot of places.. so it's a steady climb to tippy top, but nothing major..
My only bad experience of the trial.. there's a home a few miles into the ride that has dogs.. and those dogs was on my heals.. they wasn't there on my way back... that was my only bad experience.. maybe I should carry some kind of pepper spray or something to get ride of threats like that..??.. I rode all the way back down to the very end of the trail.. and started heading back to my car.. my other bad experience (my fault) I ride an e-bike and my battery ran out of juice.. that was ok... I was almost to the car anyway.. but it was an awesome ride.. took me 3 hrs to get there.. I live in Ohio.. I spent the night in Paintsville, I visited Jenny Willey Start Park which is that area.. nice park..
May head back down there next year..
I live in Kentucky and was excited to try this trail. I’ve ridden 33,000 miles on 278 trails and I can easily say I’ll never go back I had two large Dobermans chase me, nipping at my heels and jumping up on to my legs. They caused me to lose my balance and crash on my ebike. I wound up needing two shoulder replacements. I’ll never go back
Sign at entrance says high amount of bears in area but did not see any on ride. Did see Buffalo, white cows, goats, turkeys, a quarry. Trail just kinda ends in the grass. Lots to see along the way
Rode from Hagerhill to Tip Top Tunnel. The tunnel is closed but did get to go through a shorter tunnel at about the midway point. Trail is asphalt all the way. Several trailheads and rest areas along the way. Rode it in Late October…colors were gorgeous!! All in all a great ride.
First bridge on trail from parking lot by Thomas do it center. Bridge is rotting on the edge on both sides of bridge. Its dangerous because weeds are growing hiding some of the rotten areas of bridge. Also the trail from thomas do it center to 4th avenue needs to repaved or repaired. I ride my bike on trail and it is a very bumpy ride. If I am riding from spring valley to town I usually ride 160 to town and bike trail back to spring valley. One trip riding on the trail is enough for me.
We rode 45 miles, out-and-back from Jenny's Creek TH to Tip Top Tunnel. Loved the newly-paved surface. Dogs were well-behaved, scenery gorgeous, and Gun Creek Tunnel always a treat. Only wish that Griffith Family Farm was open on Sundays (but we get that!). Did stop at the old general store in Royalton for cold drinks and ice cream. Hope they open Tip Top or do a re-route one day and pave the rest of the trail.
I recently rode the Dawkins Line Rail Trail, starting from the Jane Beshear trailhead to the Hager Hill section, and had a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The gates along the trail are quite narrow, posing a challenge for cyclists maintaining any significant speed. However, they are now clearly visible, thanks to fresh coats of paint. Adding historical or informational markers along the trail would indeed enhance the overall experience. I had a wonderful time and look forward to returning soon to explore a different portion of the trail.
We had an extremely pleasant bike ride today from Swamp Branch to the Licking River (just past Jane Bashear parking area), and only saw one other being on the trail — a riderless horse! He seemed extremely trail savvy and just grunted and moved out of our way. The weather was perfect with on and off pop up showers. The pavement was nice. The Griffith Family farm at Swamp Branch supplied our picnic (and more!) and they had more kind of potato chips than I’ve ever seen.
Rode June 2024 on Tuesday, Wed. Saw very few people on trail. Did not see unrestrained dogs. Signage to call sheriff if see unrestrained dogs. The trail is paved and bridges are beautiful. Only 26 miles of trail are open because the second tunnel closed for repair. The only place on trail to purchase food and drink is Griffith Family Farm Store, but they are closed on Sunday. Jenny Wiley State Park is nearby and wonderful place to kayak, hike, and chill out at lodge, cabins, or camping.
Really beautiful trail for biking, with easy gradients. You just have to be careful with all the free roaming dogs that like to aggressively chase you. Ended up turning around half way through because dogs kept chasing me.
