Riverbluff Walkway

pretty good sketchy areas passed bass pro shop

July, 2024 by fly777300

Entered the trail on Beale Street. Pretty accessible and clean. They doing some repairs but not blocking the trail. Went over the big bridge across the Mississippi River into Arkansas side. Easy run on passing. The return over the bridge has a pretty nice incline great workout.

Wolf River Greenway

better suited for full suspension MTB

September, 2023 by ykzqct6mbj

Trail is poorly maintained, narrow and probably best for walking not road biking. Trail is paved, but very rough in many spots. Completely void of directional signs, makes it difficult for first timers.

What’s up with the electric non-pedal scooters ?

March, 2023 by hawkeye396

I’m starting to see quite a number of electric assisted bikes on the trail. The shame of that is a lot of the riders are inexperienced in handling the heavier bikes. They tend to ride faster without care of other riders. I saw someone on the trail today whose “scooter” was electric power with no pedals. It’s ruining the experience on the trail for the regular bikers. What a shame.

Shelby Farms Greenline

awesome trail

September, 2022 by iverywood

Drove up from MS to ride the green line and greenway trails. They are both incredibly maintained. Friendly walkers, runners and other riders. Obviously, the locals have poured tons of money into the construction and ongoing maintenance on both of these trails. Several miles of connecting trails from both. Be sure to venture into Shelby farms for several more easy, beautiful miles. Best kept secret in Memphis.

Shelby Farms Greenline

an easy trail for a long flat run

August, 2022 by claire.louisa.knowles

Started and finished near the correctional facility, where there’s a little parking lot and easy access to the trail. Lots of fellow runners as well as walkers and cyclists. Quite noisy with traffic, but quietens down as you head east and move closer to Shelby Farms & gets a little noisy again when you head into Cordova. Very shady most of the way and a welcome water station near the crossing near the correctional facility.

Kennedy Park 5K Loop: Trail Run

August, 2022 by claire.louisa.knowles

Parked at Wolf River Trail Head. Nice off path trails that are signposted (temporary signposts) to left and right of path. Left trail dead ends, right trail goes parallel to path and rejoins path. Nice underfoot in woods, lots of wooden board walks. Doesn’t connect to other parts of Wolf River Trail yet (as of August ‘22).

Heavy rain all last night & this morning which caused Wolf River & tributaries to flood parts of the trail. All was passable but several muddy areas. Took wrong turn several times due to intersections not marked which way to go. Enjoyed the ride.

Memphis trail closures

Rode across river crossing. Beautiful trail. Decided to turn around and ride back across . Got to other side and found the riverwalk was closed because of construction.
