This is a nice easy trail which follows the Erie Canalway for a while and then crosses the canal on a neat bridge.
If you like animals, it has easy access to Lollypop Farm Humane society.
This is a beautiful trail ! Lots of historical Rail Road stuff to discover, beautiful scenery, generally a smooth ride.
We only made the Phelps to Stanley segment, but plan on completing it soon.
Nice trail. Well maintained. A few bumps at the south end but not bad. Mostly shaded with openings for scenery.
Traveling to Rush on Sep 13 for a day with some free time. I came across this trail on a search for riding opportunities in the area. Looking forward to riding. Thank you for all the reviews.
Biked the Rush to Mendon section on 8/30/26. Trail surface maintained well. Mileage post/signs are along trail for reference. Interpretive signing at Rochester Junction for those interested in railroading history. Would definitely ride again.
As others have said, the short paved part is beautiful. The rest is larger rocks surface in many areas and the path is very narrow. I’ve ridden some rough paths before but this one takes the cake. I turned around after one mile and decided that it wasn’t for me.
Pleasant shaded trail with on-street sections through town. Surface is mostly crushed stone, with some areas prone to washouts. In town signage could be better.
Rode round trip from Cato. Trail was better than I had hoped. Though there were a lot of puddles to go around, I enjoyed the ride. The scenery was beautiful with lots of wetlands and forest scenes. I would recommend the trail for biking as long as you are on a mountain bike or a fat tire bike.
The trailhead garden at East Henrietta Road is beautiful in the spring, summer and fall! I know because I am one of the volunteers that maintains it! Yay us! Please, let us know how we're doing and contact us at henriettafoundation.com if you would like to help! Also, we would love some interesting photos and/or info to add to the trailhead kiosk! Thanks!
I can only think of one other trail that was more bumpy. We rode the streets back and dealt with bumpy sidewalks. The town of Greece should be ashame
Well maintained short walk in the city ending at Fort Ontario. Includes an historic rail bridge over the Oswego River with great views. Would be 5 stars except the tunnel mentioned in the description is closed with no evidence that it’s going to be reopened.
