The path is brand new and very nicely done. The concrete pathway is 10 foot wide and very flat and smooth. The trail is lighted at night and perfect for an evening stroll. Great place to take children.
My husband and I rode from Batavia to the southwest terminus. The trail runs parallel to Highway 2 so there is quite a bit of road noise. Between Batavia and Kila, the asphalt has so many cracks and hazards, it is hard to enjoy the ride. South of Kila must be a newer section because the final two miles of the trail are much better. Beware of the sawed off metal posts in the asphalt because they can be difficult to see and if you hit one, you could take a hard fall. If they smooth out the asphalt, the trail would be so much better.
I set out at Somers and the first mile or two were fantastic. It seemed however that most of the trail after that follows hwy 93 which is a very busy 4 lane highway and the trail is only maybe 30 feet from the road. Very noisy and you do have to cross over several driveways. If not for it being such a beautiful Montana day I would probably rated this trail 3 stars.
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.
We started in Akron and rode about 18 miles north. Loved it!!!
Back in Kalispell and needed to take a ride. Started at Meridian Road and went west towards Kila. Turned around at Batavia. Homeless under the first bridge and another guy parked truck on trail near bridge. Otherwise nice ride until it goes along busy Hwy 2. Just noisy along that part. A number of folks out on Sunday morning.
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.
We started at Riverside Park and followed the trail clockwise (the best direction unless a steep hill climb is preferred). Through town we didn’t follow the map exactly, avoided travelling on Main street where more traffic and no bike lanes. There are not any trail signs to follow. Eventually the trail connects to the Carol Sampson Sherick trail. This is the portion of trail which was the old railroad bed. Trail is wide and nicely paved, easy railroad grade climb to top of hill. Saw a couple deer along the trail. Trail could use some weed control love and crack seal but over all good. If wanting a long ride can continue straight at top of hill and follow wide paved path all the way to Ronan. We turned right on Caffrey road, the trail follows alongside road with a curb between road and trail. Next intersection made the right turn and eventually climbed to top of hill overlooking Polson and Flathead Lake. Then the trail goes down the steep grade into town. Eventually wandered city streets back to start. My mileage was to be 10.5 miles and very little deviation from trail, if anything we were a bit short on mileage from not exactly following map. Overall, some nice portions and some not so nice.
From Kalispell to Somers Most of the time followed Hwy 93 which was noisy. Loved it when the path was further away from the highway and closer to Somers. Somers is a nice quaint town, had lunch at Dels and was back in Kalispell in no time on our e-bikes.
Rode the entire trail since it was an easy connection to the Northwest Historic trail. There are some homeless who hang around but it’s a beautiful trail. Parked at the end opposite to the Historic trail to add to it.
Love how wide and easy to follow this path is. Stayed near Coram for the summer and ride this to Hungry Horse and to West Glacier. The traffic is noisy, not much scenery because it follows the highway. You do have to go around a couple of spots but we still enjoyed it. I wouldn’t classify this trail as scenic.
