Longleaf Trace

A tale of two trails and the best water fountains!

September, 2025 by robert.richter89

The Longleaf Trace almost feels like two separate trail experiences in one. I rode from Prentiss to the Clyde Depot trailhead a few miles short of Hattiesburg. The Longleaf Trace is mostly shaded but does have some sneaky rolling hills that you won't see but will definitely feel on a longer ride.

The stretch from Prentiss to shortly before Sumrall was more rural and in slightly worse condition with just a few very well marked bumps and cracks here and there. I maybe passed a handful of other people on this section of the trail.

From right outside of Sumrall to Clyde Depot (I assume all the way to Hattiesburg but I can't say from experience) the trail is smooth as glass. This section of the trail had much more traffic on it so it is nice to see that the repaving investment is driving traffic to it. Sumrall is the perfect place to stop and get a bite to eat along the trail.

On a final note the water fountains are amazing. Every one I stopped at provided ice cold, fresh tasting water. It was a welcome respite on a hot and humid day. Overall the Longleaf deserves it's place in the Rail Trail Hall of Fame!

Riding the GOLDleaf Trace

June, 2025 by smallmouth56

Mississippi has a real jewel in the Longleaf Trace. Parked at the Jackson Road station and covered from mile marker five to mile marker 20 for a 30 mile roun and like the smooth surface of the trail itself we’re all in good shape. All in all this is a very, very good rail trail and I thoroughly enjoyed my ride.

Tanglefoot Trail

Pontotoc to Houston.

Another great February day. The welcome center in New Albany is great. I love this trail. The campground in Pontotoc is nice the barrooms could use a bit of updating but they are useable. Had a great time in Mississippi.

Great trail a bit rough in spots but had a great breakfast in Algoma at the country store. Great eggs and sausage. Fantastic February weather.

Rode Houston to New Albany

We got lucky with great weather for a mid February ride. Trail was in good condition, but not excellent. Stopped at Bap’s barbecue in Pontotoc for lunch. Ended with sweets from Sugaree’s bakery in New Albany.

Chisha Foka Multi-Use Trail

Beautiful but needs maintenance

February, 2025 by askrens

The trail certainly has its allure as it traverses, offers many challenging hills, and has lots of curves for visual interest. With three road bikes and a gravel bike, we loved it. However, about 1/4 of the trail is still in need of serious maintenance. Some of the cracks are so deep, a front tire could easily fall in landing on the shoulders of the cyclist before you.

Great trail

February, 2025 by askrens

Started in Prentiss—the trail from there to Sumrall had quite a few bumps and cracks (primarily due to tree roots). Bathrooms were locked but drinking fountains were operational. The section from Sumrall to Hattiesburg was in excellent condition.recently paved. Bathrooms were open. Would easily ride again! (We were on road bikes and one gravel bike.)

Museum Trail

There is a paved bike path through the old golf course. The entrance is just past the entrance road to the Children's Museum.

10-14-2024. We got on at W. Reynolds Street in Pontotoc, MS and rode to New Albany at the trailhead. The asphalt is in very good condition with some cracks. There are lots of little bridges you cross but they are covered with 2x6 boards and it is very rough-makes your teeth rattle. We had a nice lunch in New Albany at Tallahatchie Gourmet.
