This trail is crushed gravel and grass down the middle and full of great shade on both sides of the trail. There is a water area/creek on one side visible at certain times and it crosses over a non-busy road one time coming from the south. Parking at the south end is just off I65, and there are restrooms and covered picnic tables and good area parking. It was very hot the day I was here so this shade really helps. You can hear bird singing otherwise it’s quiet and enjoyable. You don’t need hiking shoes if you are jogging or walking, Trail is flat and easy to maneuver.
Our second ride was captivating with beautiful weather (first e-bike ride was Shiloh Military Park). We parked at Cannonsburgh Village and rode to the north trailhead (Thompson Lane Park) then back to the south trailhead (Barfield Crescent Park). Paved 10’ wide asphalt 95% excellent with some minor damage from underlying roots causing bumps and a few dips. More noticeable on trikes. We expected a crowded path for the weekend but pleasantly surprised with a few other bikers, joggers and dog walkers. The path crosses the river several times and progresses underneath most cross traffic highways. Restrooms available at the multiple parks and shorter trailheads. Overall we travelled just over 26 miles and though we’re feeling it today,, the overall beauty made the ride worth it. Only con were the occasional homeless encampments at the beginning of our ride.
The trail from Sewanee to Tracy City is all asphalt now which is about 12.5 miles. The only caveat is you must ride in the bike lane on the highway that goes over I-24. If you’re coming from Sewanee look for College Street that runs parallel to the highway after you cross the bridge. It basically dead ends into the trail. Beautiful trail, about 70% shaded, inclines are very modest.
Dropped in at Barfield Road trailhead and headed up, 15.3 miles out and back on a beautiful summer day. Cicadas were loud and the birds were singing! Our first time on the trail after reading all the reviews and we loved it! Every city in America should be made to put in one of these to this caliber. Murfreesboro should be proud! Lots of people enjoying this day.
Just read a bridge is closed on greenway. Wish somehow this app was able to show updates on its trail map.
This was our first trail to try out our Ebikes. We parked at Smith Park and got on the trail. It is paved and well maintained. There is a restroom along the way. There are a few bridges and tunnels. The trail is marked where there are sharp curves. As we got closer to the part that passes by the YMCA the trail got more crowded with walkers etc. But we just went slow. We enjoyed it. Saw a deer.
The trail is fair for a greenway trail. Not all that scenic, but if you are looking for a quick short ride ( about 6 miles), this may work. However note that the bridge is currently washed out cutting off the last mile or so of the trail.
I started at the south trailhead and did an out and back for a total of 22 miles. The southern half of the trail is definitely in better condition, but my gravel bike did fine on everything. Rapeseed was blooming,as were the red buckeyes. saw several other cyclist and two groups on horseback. Wonderful to see people out on such a beautiful day.
The construction south of I-24 is done. You can now get all the way south to Barfield Park.
Is the trail a continuation or is it broken up on the other side of the interstate?
