There is a paved bike path through the old golf course. The entrance is just past the entrance road to the Children's Museum.
This trail is now complete all the way to Riverside Drive.
We had a great two day ride weather was great and trail was great also.
Great trail to ride , started in New Albany by the library rode to Ecru 22 miles round trip ! The train station stops are very nice including Ingmor , cold water , clean restrooms, and an ice chest filled with candy bars Dorthy has the stop decorated with beautiful flowers and plants! Great job , if your a cyclist and traveling through Mississippi a must stop trail to ride !
I biked the trail on Saturday, August 10, 2024, and it was an excellent trail. All of the ruts and damage to the trail has been repaired. I recommend this trail because it is my favorite.
On a bike, the pavement is dangerous in many places. Some holes and bumps are difficult to see. Use caution. Needs repaving soon. Fine for running and walking.
The trail is completely paved and smoothed. We had a great time and did the entire 44 miles both ways. Here's the sad truth. It would earn 5 starts if it was in a different location.... Or make a connecting trail to Tupelo. This would allow a cyclists to hook up with the Natchez Trace Parkway and do a complete triangle. I would not recommend riding this in the summer as it goes through several low forested areas where bugs and humidity would be unbearable. We cycled this on a beautiful April weekend and we only saw maybe 6 other cyclists the entire time. This is not a cycling mecca and therefore the trail is not supported like it could/should be. A trailside lemonade stand would go under if it depended on trail users!
We would HIGHLY recommend staying at Daisy's on the Square in Houston and Eating their steak & baked potato!!
Pros: smooth, safe, You can't get lost!
Cons: Not enough trail users to support this hidden crown jewel. (small population base) Could use a shuttle service if you only want to go one way.
trailside depot restrooms aren't cleaned very often. Our Gold Standard is the Katy Trail depot Restrooms which are always clean!
Beware of the downtown area. Very few drivers stopped for us in crosswalks. I also had one driver sharing the bike lane with me. If that bothers you, start at mile 5
Agree with the other posts. The trail has some dangerous ruts, not from lack of maintenance but weather related.
Completed the trail over three days to take it all in. Great trail and worth the drive to ride
We rode from Pontotoc to the south end in Houston and back. It was a beautiful ride and paved all the way. The temp was 50 to 70 with little wind. It was very enjoyable. We did encounter a cottonmouth at about mile marker 13 so keep an eye out.
