The Kiwanis Park Trail runs for 8 miles between Buffalo and Lake Ontario.
About the Route
Leaving from the southern end of the route, the Kiwanis Park Trail heads north to the Village of Lewiston off Mohawk Street just North of Center Street. Park at Kiwanis Park in the Village. The trail follows the Niagara Scenic Parkway to Pletcher Road for approximately 3 miles and then passes through Joseph Davis State Park.
The Kiwanis Park Trail is black top until reaching Youngstown, then the trail is concrete sidewalk through the village. From here, the trail heads all the way north until reaching Fort Niagara State Park.
The Kiwanis Park Trail runs between Fort Niagara State Park, 1 Scott Ave. (Youngstown), where parking is available, and Mohawk St. (Lewiston).
Parking is also available at:
Please see TrailLink Map for all parking options and detailed directions.
Rode from the Kiwanis park to Youngstown. Had coffee and went back. Trail is mostly paved with sidewalk in Youngstown. No complaints. Great views along the way.
Rode it today. 1/2 of it is under construction. It's an easy ride, not a lot of traffic on the paved road. Beautiful scenery, it'll be great when it done.
This trail was a great disappointment. Very poorly maintained. When you get to the part along the river it’s horrendous. You have to be very careful because there are holes and it’s extremely rough. Will never go on the trail again
I wouldn’t have found this trail without this app!! Quiet paved trail through the woods for a few miles until you reach the paved path that runs along 18F to Youngstown. A safe path good for a leisurely ride without having to worry about traffic.
This trail is specifically beautiful during fall.
The trail needs to be resurfaced, many holes to avoid. The trail needs to be wider to avoid traffic. Best part is a great view. The state needs to trim the trees to avoid riders from getting hurt.
Paved path, however, very narrow. Only 3 miles of it is a path the rest is a street. A little disappointed.
just poured for hours last night and the trail was paved the whole way to the fort. easy riding not alot of traffic early in the morning.
This awesome trail starts at the tennis courts inside a subdivision. It is a little hard to find but so worth it. The beginning of the path is like taking a hike through the words (but with asphalt). It is so beautiful. You do have to cross some street then and the path takes you over by the gorge. The path is curvy and goes by lovely houses. At some points you have to go into the street by Youngstown. At that point you can ride into Ft. Niagara and enjoy the park. This is such a lovely ride and not very busy.
The trail provides a great peaceful, scenic adventure through the natural greenspace along the Robert Moses and around Lower River Road.
However, its condition has deteriorated over the years and has several unsafe locations if roller blading or biking.
Are there any future plans to update?
