Print Friendly MapThe Cadiz Railroad Trail runs for 2.5 miles between an old railroad depot on State route 139 and Fortner Drive at the east end of Cadiz, Kentucky. The trail parallels Noel Drive and Lafayette Street, following an old corridor of the Cadiz Railroad. The rail once hauled tobacco from Cadiz to Gracey, where it joined the Illinois Central and Louisville & Nashville railroads.
Parking for the Cadiz Railroad Trail is available at the old railroad depot along State Route 139N between Depot and Lafayette streets.
2.5-mile paved hike/bike trail has been established on the former right-of-way from downtown Cadi, KY. A great place to spend a couple of hours hiking or for a quick bike trip down a 110-year-old rail corridor. Part of the trail was closed near the park as 10/27/24.
Ok route. I would recommended parking in the school lot. Otherwise you cross a busy road. Need a trail, hybrid or mountain for the trail by the railroad
Stopped and rode the trail on May 30. There are a couple of rough spots but was a good break on my road trip. Be sure and visit downtown Cadiz. You can access the trail by making a right hand turn at the sign directing you to the Post Office.
