Pumpkinvine Nature Trail

Top 5

September, 2025 by pedalpushinllka

We have cycled in all 50 states and definitely feel this trail is in the top 5 of all our rides. Between the well marked and maintained path, the tree lanes and open fields, the simple lifestyle and presence of the Amish, this trail is a joy to experience. A must do!

Monon Trail

We parked at the 69th Street Trailhead. We went north & it was a shady and a scenic ride. Carmel had restaurants next to the trail. Lots of walkers, cycles, & dogs. Very nice trail.

Milwaukee Road Transportation Trailway

Nice Milwaukee ride

August, 2025 by mike1318

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.

Fishing Line Trail (Noble)

How Long is It?

August, 2025 by clonetrooper5373

This site says that the trail is 7 miles (one way), but my bike computer said it was only 5+ (one way), so does anybody know?

Anyway, this is a decent trail with some rough pavement near the Kendallville trailhead but is still pretty good.

Big 4 Trail (Lebanon to Colfax)

Enjoyable Ride

August, 2025 by goldfussjennifer

My husband and I rode this trail on 8-22-25. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and thought the trail was relatively well maintained. Some have complained about branches and rough surfaces but we did not find it bad at all. We are used to riding country roads in much worse conditions. We rode to Colfax and stopped to enjoy a meal at Pizza King. I highly recommend this stop! It had a small town friendliness and great service. We enjoyed a sub sandwich, salad, breadsticks, and milkshake. The breadsticks were outstanding as well as the handcrafted shakes- so many flavors from which to choose. We split the buckeye shake and it was delicious!

Monon Trail

LOVED IT!

August, 2025 by zap26

On my way from PA to WI I decided to stop in Indianapolis, IN. I decided to ride the Monon Trail to the Cultural Trail in downtown, to the Canal Walk and reverse. I absolutely loved the ride, enjoyed riding through the city, and really liked all the murals and art as I was riding. As I was riding south and getting closer to downtown Indianapolis, there were a lot of road crossings, however I will say this was one of the most courteous places to bike, almost every car stopped to let bikers cross. If I ever come back to Indianapolis I would definitely ride this trail again. It is in one of my top 5 trails. Definitely worth doing if you are in Indianapolis.
