Print Friendly MapThe southern end of the trail begins on Sandy Prairie Road, just north of its intersection with Drake Hill Road, and heads north, passing by open fields and farmlands as well industrial areas. The trail parallels the scenic Eel River, with lush mountain views, fields and wide open farmland until reaching the northern endpoint on Riverwalk Drive.
Parking can be found along the trail on Riverwalk Drive (1650 S 12th Street), near the River Lodge Conference Center. See TrailLink Map for more detailed information.
My son and I rode this trail’s entire length. It has nice river views and a decent little park for parking and trail access near its middle. Overall, it was sort of boring and bumpy with embedded rocks. Lots of walkers, which it is better suited for. We saw no other cyclists during our bumpy ride. Glad we did it, but wouldn’t bother to do it again.
The trail is well maintained. The Eel River is lovely with trees, greenery, and flowers lining the bank. On the other side are several industrial businesses. It is nice to have open spaces to stretch the legs.
Surprising peaceful for being off a main road . Beautiful views !
