Legacy Trail (KY)

Needs signage, facilities, parking

April, 2025 by runer4jc

I started at the trail “ending” downtown - but there was no parking, no trailhead, no facilities, and no sign to identify the trail. Strange. I parked at the Catholic Church down the street. I was told I could park at the YMCA, but how do out of town people know this. Then, it was difficult to follow the trail at crossings - very few signs or road markings. The trail is nice, good surface, and beautiful scenery toward the north end. But then it ends at a farm gate - no parking, no facilities, no trailhead, and no signs. Strange. Lexington needs to develop it more! a nice trail.

Ohio River Trail

Great trail with potential to connect

December, 2024 by luv_mlb25

I ran this trail on December 26, 2024. Started at the 5-mile road section and ended at Waites Rd. This measured 2.13 miles. Then picked up again at Ebersole Community Center and ran that entire segment including the off spur to canoe ct/trailhead, ending at Corbin Street and this measured 5.16 miles. The last segment started at the Crystailine Tower and ended at Smith Street and that measured 2.75 miles....so that is closer to 10 mile run. The site measures it as close to 8 and I don't know if they just didn't include a segment or not, but it was clearly closer to 10 miles. The sites were fantastic and the middle segment has some breathtaking views of just amazing wide open views around the airport. I would run this more if I lived closer to this trail. I never felt unsafe on the trail and there were quite a few people on the trail with the nice weather in December. HIghly recommend the trail :)

great trail

October, 2024 by sewso1962

Husband and I are new EBike riders. We haven’t ridden bikes in 30+ years. We loved this trail. We try to be respectful when approaching other bikers and runners. We parked at Coldstream and rode north to horse park. Rode into the campground and stopped for ice cream in camp store. I have read comments about road noise from I-75, but honestly the trail and scenery are still beautiful. We rode about 15 miles after meandering a bit off trail at Horse park. We rode on Saturday and there were a lot of people on the path but everyone shared i

Legacy Trail (KY)

Great Experience.

October, 2024 by michaelshaffer_tl

My son and I hiked the trail for one of his Scout merit badges. A well maintained trail. Most cyclists were courteous about saying “passing on left”. There is water and picnic tables and restrooms at mile marker 5.6. There are also port-a-pots in a few other areas along the way. Our route took us from the Horse Park to the end of the trail and back. We did take a couple of the shorter trails off the main trail. Overall a great experience.

This could be a great trail. We went north to Fredericksburg from Millersburg. The trail was smooth for the first 5 miles, then got rough. It is shared with horses and had droppings on both sides. There is no restrooms north of Millersburg.

Good job UK & City of Lexington

July, 2024 by mollyrollins008

Wife, special needs adult son & I rode about 2/3rds of the Legacy Trail on 7/25/2024. We had been in town this week visiting family, who had previously mentioned this bike trail, so I was looking forward to experiencing it. We started at the North end, noontime, with the July heat making itself known. The ride was overall pleasant, despite a considerable amount of time spent in close proximity to I64/I75. The only issue we experienced was losing our way (due to inadequate signage) near Coldstream Park. We ended up at an apparent dead end at Aristides Drive, near the Embassy Suites & Marriott & it took about 20 minutes of wrangling, looking at maps on our phones & asking locals how to get back on the main path to get on our way. I was looking forward to completing the entire trail, but the detour and last portion along Citation Drive in the afternoon July heat sapped the remaining commitment we had in finishing. We were able to get a tasty lunch at Jimmy John's and after this break, we were able to do the return trip with no issues. It appears that south to north is more downhill, making it easier. Will definitely ride again next time back in the area. Thanks for a good time!!

Ohio River Trail

Connects to Purple People Bridge

May, 2024 by joenad55

Jogged on this during a recent trip. Right along the Ohio river. On one side it goes right by the stadiums, and the other side is right alongside the river. Great scenery and the pavement is in very good condition. can be accessed from the purple People Bridge down a flight of stairs.

Newport Southbank Bridge (Purple People Bridge)

Nice experience.

May, 2024 by joenad55

I loved going over this bridge, both walking and jogging. Connects to the riverfront on both sides. Easy access to the stadiums and downtown Cincinnati. Lots of artwork on it. The bridge can actually be rented for special events!

Well paved trail. Rode from YMCA to the end and back. About 24 miles total. We had a good ride with beautiful scenery. Some hills but not too bad. We did hear the traffic noise 60-70% of the time.

Squires Road Trail

Hills...but it's Kentucky

March, 2024 by luv_mlb25

I ran this trail in March 2024. The review that has been submitted stated that the trail was short and flat. It is short, but it is not flat. The trail legend shows it's split in to three legs, but a person could absolutely do the whole stretch without any issue. There is little to no traffic and even though you do cross a couple of roads, the cars were kind enough to let me run through. There is a slow steep hill through Berry Park and then the rest of the path runs behind a neighborhood of houses. I parked in the "middle" of the three trails at the above-mentioned park and ran southwest first and this was a steady up and down path. It looks as though it has just been repaired as there were still signs of freshly planted grass and straw along the path. However, sadly, there are sinking holes already in the path and even a huge crater in part of it. I then did a loop, returning to the park and then up the northeastern part of the trail. This runs through a cul-de-sac and is an easy road run until the trail picks up again just cross Alumni Drive. The northern part of the trail is mostly shaded and wide with a nice creek running through. I felt safe and the trail seemed to be clear of trash. Not sure I would run this again if I were to return to the area just based on the hills alone. I was just in the area for an overnight stay and needed to fit in a quick 5K before a long car ride home.

We did a 8.45 mi round trip between Harvard Rd and Warren Rd overhead bridge. Being in a wheelchair we had no issues whatsoever with the surface of the trail.
