I did some recon on this trail on it's eastern edge and it was completely overgrown. Would make a nice project if you could get some money behind it. At this point, it's basically inaccessible.
Sign at the Kibler's Bridge parking area says Palmetto Trail Temporarily Closed. Tree down over power line in the parking area. Trail does not appear to be maintained.
I tried three different locations to park and get on this trail. The very end as mentioned on this ABP gas station which shows an access trail which is very overgrown and the James Ross wildlife rehab which this app states there’s parking. None of which worked I do not recommend attempting to access this trail from York, South Carolina Carolina.
While I do not have firsthand knowledge of this trail, I learned from conversations with local residents that, except for portions of the trail in York, SC, much of the corridor is currently overgrown and undeveloped. A review of Google Maps satellite imagery appears to support those observations.
That is unfortunate, as the region would greatly benefit from a longer rail trail connecting communities and providing additional recreational opportunities. Hopefully, future development efforts will bring more of this historic rail corridor back into public use.
We rode from Travelers Rest to Greenville. Looks like lots of places to eat and drink but we rode early. It was pretty crowded on both ends but nice and calm in the middle. Be prepared to dodge runners, walkers, and strollers. And an occasional high speed e bike. If you’re looking for a place to increase your fitness, this probably isn’t it. If your looking to just cruise and maybe get a beer your good to goandsomething to eat
It was a beautiful ride through the woods with lots of really interesting history. But there were lots of bumps due to tree roots which were hard to see due to the leaves covering them! We felt it was a bit too rough with our new e-bikes but that is simply a personal preference. We loved the posts along the way with interesting facts about how the RR was built. The Badwell Cemetery along the route was also so very interesting. We would recommend this trail if you don't mind the bumps!
Not a true bike path. Wayyyy too narrow and blind curves. I couldn't wait to get off of it. Ok for walking I'm sure but BEWARE it's not safe for bikes!
Such a peaceful walk and really cool spot
I live in the area, and frequently walk all of these trails. They are excellent. They're not all connected currently. Due to construction, some sections are closed. The West Columbia section is closed for the next six months. Part of the Riverfront Park is closed too. Your best bet if you're looking for distance is Candi Lane or the Timmerman Trail located at Dominion Energy. You can get around 11.5 miles round trip from the Timmerman Trail to Blossom Steet and back. Candi Lane is 6.8ish miles round trip. The Timmerman Trail is mostly shaded as is Candi Lane. The Riverfront Park, not so much.
