Hello fellow trails walkers, runners, bikers, skateboarders and more. Im the fellow trail reviewer on Goggle Maps and on TrailLink and this is my first trail review! Title: Two Mile Creek Greenway Distance: 1.3 miles Main Attraction: Two Mile Creek Path Condition: Good Markings on Trail: Bad Extra Notes: Lots of Wildlife for a little bit it smells really bad. Nice bridge, Pretty memorial park. Parking by Shoreline Trail Here’s a few more details before you trail lovers go on this trail. I suggest this trail for a good short walk. There’s a divide towards the beginning by shoreline trail but both ways are on the trail either one is the trail they divide is very short. Not any markers but you can find your way around. Lots of wildlife saw deer, squirrels and even a black squirrel! Pretty memorial park with wind chimes, flowers benches and memorials. There’s a cool old fashioned bride with lots of graffiti on it. There’s a pretty view of the creek. One drawback is that there’s a sewer plant nearby so for a section of the trail it smells really bad. That’s really it trail lovers I hope you enjoy this wonderful trail! Walked on 10/27/24
Be warned: The trail, in spots, is entirely unmaintained aside from some lawn mowing. It's as if you are riding through a grass field. In other areas, the trail is entirely dirt and if it were wet / rained recently would be entirely unusible. If you are on a road bike or bike with more road focused tires, you may have difficulties.
We had gravel bikes or mountain bikes so the trails surface was not an issue and we did the entire trail from the south starting point up and back, with no issue and averaged around 10mph during our ride with minimal effort. We even extended about a 1/3 a mile beyond the end until we ran out of bikeable path.
The trail is a shared use trail and great for walkers/runners/horses.
We only saw a handful of people on a Saturday when we were out.
Ellicottville Brewing has a location along the trail in Happy Valley which is 6 miles from either end, right in the middle of the trail.
A great stop for some food or beverages if you want to break up your ride.
I tried this trail out of Brocton and besides the poor marking of the trail (it is not continuous and requires some traversing on pavement to find the next entrance) it is just not well maintained for cyclists. This is an amazing hiking trail but just not great for gravel bikes or rigid bikes with wide tires. I would come back and do this on a hardtail. Honestly with how much you have to trudge through chunky gravel and grass an E bike would be the best choice. If you’re looking for a fun gravel ride up to Chautauqua, just ride the roads they’re much more enjoyable.
The trail is well marked it's a bit tough going on roads through parts of Lockport. Once back on the trail, is well maintained.
I have ridden this trail from my home near the Genesee River into downtown Rochester and then out to Rte 252 / Jefferson Rd. Often I do a loop back home on the east side of Genesee River. It's even and well paved, clear on both sides. only some bumps and pavement that is a very little bit crumbly down on the straightway south of the Church of Love. but it is wide enough that never is a problem. Definitely gets lots of mosquitoes in areas. This trail follows the old railroad line and on one side also the Genesee Valley Canal.
The ride is 100% paved. Parts of it appear to be part of an older road system that are no longer used and kept up. The other paved trails are well-maintained in the grass cut. I started in Lewiston. the incline is rather long. Not steep but just long and seem to never end lol. There are some beautiful views. When I got into the actual Falls, it was hard to tell where the trail was because everything is paved and thousands of people walking around .
Walking the Pat Mcgee Trail ... we have to clean up after our dogs ... why don't the people on horses have to clean up after their horses???
In early June, we rode the section of the Erie Canal from Camillus to Syracuse. We also took a side trip on the Onondaga Lake West and East Shore Trails. Round trip, we biked approximatel 30 miles.
We parked at the June Reed Webster Park. The bathrooms were open. With that said, we have been there before and they have been closed. I would not count on them 100%.
The trail was in excellent shape. The Erie Canal section was hard a packed with small gravel. We did encounter hills, which we did not expect on a canal trail. They were small and manageable. Most of the hilly sections were paved, making them easy to navigate. The Onondaga Lake trails are paved and in fantastic condition. We only came across two small sections with tree root bumps.
This section of the Erie Canal Trail goes through the New York State Fairgrounds. It was eerie and strange to be at the Fair when no one else was around. Made for a unique experience.
The Onondaga Lake Trails were a pleasure with views of the lake, woodlands, birds, and flowers. We saw several bluebirds, which is not something we encounter routinely.
The Onondaga Lake Trails are part of the Onondaga Lake Park which has multiple bathroom facilities and picnic tables. We ate our lunch with a view of the lake and pickleball courts. There were a people playing, which provided our lunch time entertainment.
The only potential downside is the trail near Camillus is next to a garbage dumb. It is landscaped nicely with wild flowers in abundance and we did find a turtle on the path. We noticed an odor on our way back when the temperature was hotter. On the positive side, it is a productive use of the land.
We give this trail a thumbs up and will ride it again.
Quiet, peaceful, not many others on trail...but it was hot today ! Like 90ishhh ¿Wide enough for 2 people to walk in opposite directions and still have plenty of room in between.
Started from Churchville, going west, on a mountain bike, in May 2024. Only did 1/2 mile. VERY rough, large rocks, ruts, terrible surface. You will shake the fillings out of your teeth. Not suitable for bikes , primarily used by atvs, not maintained. Dont waste any time here.
