I live in Kentucky and was excited to try this trail. I’ve ridden 33,000 miles on 278 trails and I can easily say I’ll never go back I had two large Dobermans chase me, nipping at my heels and jumping up on to my legs. They caused me to lose my balance and crash on my ebike. I wound up needing two shoulder replacements. I’ll never go back
My husband and I rode the trail this morning. We are staying at the RV Park/Kentucky Horse Park so getting on the trail was very easy from our site. No loading up the bike and trike on the truck and driving to a starting point. The trail is nice with well maintained asphalt. The grass along the trail edges had been freshly mowed. You have to cross some streets but it wasn't a problem. Only complaint was it could have used more shade trees. Definitely a worth while ride.
Paved, Gravel, Rocks, Sharp corners, lots of trees down, we had e-bikes which where trek bikes, I wouldn’t recommend trikes to not enough room for them to get over in the woods. We couldn’t get around a big fallen tree on the first part of the trail so we back tracked and went back to the truck and went to the end and started. We did get in 25 miles total.
I absolutely loved this trail. But the Southern trailhead actually starts north of the where trail link has it on the map — it’s on US 62 by the covered bridge. Hopefully this will get corrected soon. Otherwise a really fabulous trail.
Really enjoyed. I learned that the local public library will check out bikes for a dollar to its patrons. I just love that.
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.
We’ve ridden many rail trails across the country and this one is really great. All paved, mostly flat with some gentle grades. Dogs that some reviews mention are all in fenced kennels, none loose on the trail. We stopped at Griffith Farms for soda and some great farm treats - really fun. Mix of woods, creeks, bridges, family farms, lots of wildlife.
Sign at entrance says high amount of bears in area but did not see any on ride. Did see Buffalo, white cows, goats, turkeys, a quarry. Trail just kinda ends in the grass. Lots to see along the way
I started at the trail “ending” downtown - but there was no parking, no trailhead, no facilities, and no sign to identify the trail. Strange. I parked at the Catholic Church down the street. I was told I could park at the YMCA, but how do out of town people know this. Then, it was difficult to follow the trail at crossings - very few signs or road markings. The trail is nice, good surface, and beautiful scenery toward the north end. But then it ends at a farm gate - no parking, no facilities, no trailhead, and no signs. Strange. Lexington needs to develop it more! a nice trail.
