We stayed at the Southern Oregon RV Park (nice) and the north end of the trail starts at the front of the RV Park. Good ride-saw ducks playing in a small waterfall/beautiful artwork on the bridge columns and underpasses/ quite a few feral cats-someone had set up a feeding station for them/several beautiful parks/food vendor market at one of the parks/several homeless (no encampments) and loiterers (they did not bother). Saw police presence on the trail-Police truck slowly driving on the trail and several clean up crews working on the trail. We rode two days in a row.
Most of this ride is quite pleasant, but there are several parts adjacent to roads that diminish its quality. Additionally, the path just stops in the middle of nowhere.
We rode recumbents from the Day Use lot in the Valley of the Rogue State Park. It was well maintained, but the trucks are alarming at times. The trail ends before Gold Hill, but you can follow 99 through the village. Then follow signs towards the falls. The trail begins again beside the railroad tracks and goes up to the falls. The Del Rio Winery is on the trail and is accessible by bike Ti’lmathFalls
We rode recumbents from Blue Heron Park to end of trail in Ashland. The trail ended at sewage and dog park! It is a nice easy ride. Crossed over one road. No homeless issues in this part of ride. A lunch at Clyde’s Corner Restaurant right on the path was fun.
I commute along this path all the time as an Ashland resident. The path is short and runs next to the railroad tracks through the Railroad district and up to Hunter Park, through the cemetery to Tolman Creek Rd. Unfortunately, the city of Ashland is not really in tune with taking care of its bike paths and bike lanes. The bike path, much like the Ashland bike lanes on the streets, is rarely swept--especially after they drop gravel in the winter. Also, the city recently used chip seal to resurface the path. Chip seal is inexpensive for the city, but it is a horrible surface for riding. That said, the view out to Grizzly Peak is a great view for a local commute.
We jumped on the trail near Ashland (stayed at the Lithia Springs Hotel). We rode the trail northwest to the town of Phoenix and back, with a short ride on the way back to the edge of Ashland. About 14 miles total. Small sections near the highway are noisy but most of the trail is through forested area next to a stream, even saw some deer. Very safe, well maintained and basically flat, so pretty easy. Highly recommend.
From Ashland or to central point or. approx. 18 miles. Hard surface, no gravel, no dirt. Partly shaded. Flat. Scenic, except last few miles, near Central Point. Homeless camped near path around Medford but no hassle. Rating should be
4 1/2 rather than 5, due to homeless.
The trail had none of the issues the last reviewer stated from 2016. The ride around the park had a nice wide paved trail with no weeds, grass, etc. The city maintenance crew was out mowing and crawling brush/weeds. This part of the trail was just flat and boring. The views were of golfers and people enjoying the park. I didn’t like the fact many people allowed their dogs to run free regardless of the fact all dogs were to remain on a leash. My wife and I also took the connecting trail to downtown along the river. We DO NOT recommend doing this section. In the short one mile section there were over a dozen homeless camps, dogs running free and the smell of trash everywhere. At one point we had two dogs charge at us. Sad the city hasn’t done something about all this as the trail has lots of potential to be a beautiful trail.
Good ride from Phoenix exit 24 to right before hawthorn park, was cornered in by some individuals from both angles along with the countless homeless by the bridge.. will never go thru hawthorn park again!!!
Had a fun time cruising this trail. In some parts there are quite a few homeless people which is a side of the city some people might find uncomfortable. Also you are close to the freeway the whole time. Positives are it’s an easy trail that even kids can do that goes a long way. The creek is beautiful and there are some nice natural areas all along the trail. I will do it again for sure.
Some of the reviews are talking about the Bear creek greenway trail... this is the Rogue River Trail and it is a quiet, beautiful ride along the river. You can easily connect to the bike path at the south end of this trail and ride into the town of Gold Hill. The entire trip from the town of Rogue River, through Valley of The Rogue State Park (camping available) to Gold Hill is an excellent biking/waking route.
