Rode on a very hot muggy June morning, so as others have stated bring plenty of your own water. I did the whole trail, started at Williams Dam, felt the return trip back from Bedford was just slightly easier. Note that the trail goes under the 16th St., a major thoroughfare in Bedford, and that the many amenities visible on Google maps are not accessable from the trail. I would rate the scenery as just okay, not a destination trail but entirely worthwhile if in the area. And as always, many kudos to the local (I assume) volunteers for keeping up the trail. The end near Williams was a bit rough, possibly exacerbated by recent heavy rains, but the majority is very smooth.

My wife and I rode the Floyd’s Fork section today. The weather was beautiful and the trail was pretty and fun! Some parts are in the trees and bushes and you feel like you’ve gotten away from the world. The trail itself is well maintained. We came across many people who were walking, jogging and biking. If you are a biker and moving a little too fast, you will need to be careful on the bends so you don’t get in a “tight spot” with other people! we truly enjoyed riding on this section of the loop.
Hi I run and Bike. Water fountains open at Pekin trail head. Partial crushed rock and paved. Awesome trail.
We started at the dam and it was hard to find the start as there was no markings to say this was the start of the trail we found as we were about to leave over to the right. From there the trail was great for about 9 miles but then the gravel became so big we were having a bit of trouble riding. But all in all a fun little trail with some cool bluffs and neat bridges
First time on this gravel trail. Nice easy parking in Bedford. After leaving town there were a few areas getting work on after a washout. Once past those couple areas it was very beautiful shaded ride. Being a heavy user of Indianapolis trails, it is such a nice change to have peaceful country side to go through. Saw a couple of deer and a couple of bikers on, so I wasn’t worried about any stray cougars. Just kidding. Super enjoyable ride.
Indiana has done a beautiful job with this trail. Could use real restrooms on New Albany end but the port a pots were fairly clean.
Beautiful scenery and if you’re lucky you’ll see cows roaming the pastures! Nice trail with a good uphill climb in the middle. Ample parking at all trailheads along the route.
As of May 2025 you can ride about 10 miles uninterrupted from Deam Lake to Pekin. The trail is paved through 5 towns (Borden, Pekin, Salem, Orleans, Mitchell). Restroom facilities are being built in a couple of those towns. It’s crushed lime except in the towns. Very enjoyable trail.
We rode the Riverwalk section and the Big Four Bridge. The bridge was great, the Riverwalk was not. It is true they had major flooding about 3 weeks ago and, understandably, this was not yet fully remediated. But even in unaffected areas the majority of the trail goes through dilapidated inner city and industrial sections with only minimal and unmaintained landscaping, hardscaping, or other park amenities. If you want a much better southern Riverwalk trail experience, go to Chattanooga TN or Columbus GA.
We crossed the Big Four Bridge while riding the River Walk portion of the Louisville Loop trail. The bridge was way better than the trail.
