This trail runs right by our house, we use it daily for walking our dog, and getting to/from Main Street.
We rode 17 miles total, and stopped for a picnic at the nature park. Trail is in great condition and is very scenic. We witnessed the expansion going eastwards as the crew was laying asphalt. What a wonderful asset to the community.
The northwest corner of the trail shown on this map now extends along Indiana Avenue and along 10th Street, and also there’s a new stretch along South Street.
The west end of the trail now continues along Fall Creek to Burdsal Parkway and then to the White River trail, and it also intersects with the new extension of the Canal Towpath.
The south end is no longer at 30th St; it now follows the canal down to Burdsal Parkway. From there it connects both to the Fall Creek Trail and to a new trail whose name I don’t even know, that goes south to Indiana Avenue, where it connects to a new extension of the Cultural Trail which takes you downtown. If you follow that to the east end, it connects to the Monon Trail which will loop you back to the north end of this trail.
We started in Akron and rode about 18 miles north. Loved it!!!
What a great trail. Mostly wooded. All hard surface. Extremely enjoyable!
We rode about 35 miles of this trail August, 2024. Day 1: D street trailhead to Williamsburg (22 miles round trip). Very rough road in Richmond and heavy traffic at 2 road crossings. Once we got to Webster it was a lovely ride to Williamsburg. Porta-john at Webster and Williamsburg. Nice little shelter with picnic tables in Williamsburg too. Day 2: Williamsburg to Losantville (25 miles round trip). Alternated between wooded areas and open farmland. Saw some animals and birds - including cardinals. The last 3 miles into Losantville follows US 35 and there is a lot of vehicle noise but the trail does not force you to cross US 35. We did walk across 35 in Losantville to gas station for drink and snack - there was some tables and chairs outside. Also used the restroom. Day 3: Medford north to just past US 35 (27 miles round trip). This is roughest part of path we rode. There were not only horizontal cracks but also deep vertical cracks in pavement that were dangerous to bike tires. Not much shade and not very scenic with several heavy traffic rode crossings, including crossing US 35 twice. We did stop at depot in Muncie. Nice restrooms, gift shop and trail info, including mileage chart that I did not find online anywhere.
I rode the Panhandle Pathway from the Kenneth trailhead to Winimac and back. Overall, it is a good trail for those who are wanting to get away from the crowds and do some riding. There is nothing specific to to tell about the trail except that the Tippecanoe River bridge is very well done. The trail is flat and easy to ride. The Winimac trailhead area is nice because there are public restrooms directly adjacent to the trail. Conversely, the Panhandle is experiencing the inevitable problem that comes with time. There are several areas that have tree roots heaving and then cracking the trail surface.
I rode the shorter portion and found it very different from the west end. The maintenance was absent with bushes growing onto the trail. Trash was also on, and right next to trail. It was a bit disappointing to see the difference in how each section is cared for.
This is a beautiful trail. We had to stop for two fawns standing on the trail. We watched a doe and a bald eagle in the river. There is a hairpin turn as you near Lagro, that has an immediate uphill climb.
