Emily B. Taylor Greenway

I’ve little walk.

February, 2021 by juscass86

Paved, seems relatively safe. Parking at the Cinema a bit sketchy.

Muddy Creek Greenway

close to home

December, 2020 by bigredman24

Five minutes to the greenway from home, plenty of parking. It’s flat and great for the family. Has been crowded the few times we’ve been but everyone is very friendly. Overall a quick beautiful little ride.

Long Branch Trail (NC)

fun little trail

Short and simple. Nice scenery.

High Point Greenway Trail

High Point Greenway -A Great Urban Greenspace

December, 2020 by mjmittner

I started from Armstrong Park, and walked just up to Lexington and back today. The path was paved and well marked, with a Sandy creek running alongside. It was wide enough to allow bicyclists to pass easily. People are generally polite, and maintain distance.

Bicentennial Greenway

it is bumpy

December, 2020 by herman27262

It is bumpy and not exactly good for a road bike. If you ride on any trails, then it is acceptable. I enjoy it and it is very peaceful and beautiful. If the tree roots were eliminated, then it would take away from the nature. I highly recommend it

High Point Greenway Trail

very easy ride with several hills

December, 2020 by herman27262

Cross several streets and connects to other bike trails. Good easy ride. Great parking at Armstrong park.

Lick Run Greenway

A beautiful greenway.

November, 2020 by ockham3

Lick Run is my favorite among all the Roanoke Greenway, but it is a bit short for a biker. Nice hill climb though. I usually begin at Wiley Drive on the Roanoke River Greenway and ride to Norwich then to Black Dog Salvage and on down 10 Street to 460. There is no bike trail on Orange Avenue, but there is unused sidewalk alongside the heavy traffic. Then to Lick Run and to the Mall!

Huckleberry Trail

November, 2020 by tom.morgan.100

The Huckleberry Trail is the result of a partnership between Christiansburg, Blacksburg and Montgomery County that provides a beautiful paved greenway for bikers, runners and walkers. Note...it is not a rail trail, there are hills! We did a YouTube video of our ride that you can find on our channel, Bent on Bike Trails.

Salem Lake Trail

pretty but too crowded

October, 2020 by priscillaqstjohn

Too many people. I like my walks more solitary, especially during a pandemic.

Muddy Creek Greenway

Great starter trail for kids

October, 2020 by stewart.jefferys

Wife and I took our 9 and 7 yr old on this trail and they loved it. It’s flat and paved with nice scenery. It’s relatively short and would be nice for running as it wasn’t crowded at all.

Atlantic & Yadkin Greenway

Great Trail for Kids

September, 2020 by fi34xve6gt

Really great trail, we pulled the Burley on our bikes with our two year old. There are a couple play parks to stop at along the way, plus we ended up at the science center where there were paddle boats, playgrounds, lots of fun for kids. My app said I went about 12 miles, it was all fairly shaded and the lake was beautiful. Highly recommend for hiking with children.

Atlantic & Yadkin Greenway

This trail is beautiful and provides connection to multiple awesome trails that provide a more woodsy experience. Palmetto Trail is my personal favorite, but all are very nice! The trails off of this one provide varying challenge levels.
