Jamaica North Trail

Beautiful woodsy trail

June, 2025 by kristiflakes

This is my absolute favorite Lincoln trail. It is very woodsy and filled with birds and other wildlife. (Personally, I love riding on limestone and the dirt paths.) There are so many opportunities to join a Wilderness Park dirt path, beautiful bridges and lots of shade.

MoPac Trail East

WOW!

June, 2025 by berylmassage

I was on the MoMac Trail East this morning. It was easy to find. The parking spot was adjacent to a bathroom. The weather was perfect. And the scenery was magnificent. I wish I was here for longer so I could do more of it! What a blessing!

Steamboat Trace Trail

Could be good

May, 2025 by djcru68

If you take it do it from Peru to Brownsville. I did it from Neb City all the way to Brownsville and the first part was not maintained at all and then a boring 5 miles thru a farm. In Peru they have a nice bathroon if it was open. I get real mad knowing these trail town get money to maintain this stuff yet allot do nothing especially in Nebraska. Once again no trash cans, bathrooms and honestly except Brownsville no real towns to speak of and it was a long ride when you have to do it there and back. I think Peru to Brownsville if fixed up and maintained could host some cool biking events and add some running events in it. Its got some nice views.

Warden to Lind

April, 2025 by howmarplus3

Ok section, kind of dull. Agriculture & cows. Found a bit of shade by a grain elevator for lunch. Several washouts filled with tumbleweeds as you get closer to Lind.

Steamboat Trace Trail

Has potential

March, 2025 by crjdajab_mom

Went from Peru to Brownville. Definitely more utilized than Brownville to end.

Antelope Creek Trail

Continuation of Billy Wolff, but much more scenic all the way thru

January, 2025 by rivet_compass9b

As the title says, this is a continuation of the Billy Wolff Trail, but unlike it, it runs through neighborhoods and wooded areas the entire time. The former starts out downtown in the decidedly city area with not a lot of scenery. P.S. You’d be forgiven for thinking this is part of Billy Wolff; I only just now learned that this is technically a different trail after it comes out of Holmes Lake and curves around the dog park. Even the sign there says “Billy Wolff”!

Jamaica North Trail

Would be my favorite trail but…

January, 2025 by rivet_compass9b

This trail has absolutely unmatched scenery. It’s a beautiful trail to ride. However, the fact that it is limestone really detracts from the experience. I don’t know if it’s just me or my bike or what it could be, but I definitely notice the wear and tear on my bike after months of riding the limestone trail. I’d really love to see the City pave this one, (at least in the middle, they could leave limestone shoulders for runners) because this would immediately go from a 3 star to a 5 (heck, a 6!) star trail. 10/10 recommend, just not daily for months on end with an old road bike! And if any fellow trail lovers are willing to submit feedback to the city representatives about paving like I have, that would be greatly appreciated.

Great American Rail-Trail

such a beautiful trail!

October, 2024 by sherryschie

We started in Akron and rode about 18 miles north. Loved it!!!

Great American Rail-Trail

West bound from Ellensburg. August 2024

August, 2024 by tastesbadtobears

We ( recumbent trike & e-bike) headed West from the Kiwanis park. Turned around after 9km as the surface was really tough on the trike. There’s 2 good wheel tracks for bikes, but the trike had to ride partially in the coarse trail ballast. Scenic area with farm views and a huge windmill farm in the distance.

Steamboat Trace Trail

You need to take this trail off the app. The worst trail in America may be the world. God bless you all.

Antelope Creek Trail

Pleasant trail

May, 2024 by ksteen1

Nice for biking and walking. Passes by a playground and some scenic woodsy areas as well as some residential. Not a very challenging trail in terms of hills.

Blue River Rail Trail

I’d highly recommend this trail.
