Lick Run Greenway begins in downtown Roanoke and heads north just over 4 miles to end between Huff Lane Park and Valley View Mall. Along the way, the paved pathway traverses two parks: Washington Park and Brown Robertson Park. Both parks offer picnic tables, basketball courts, and playgrounds. Near its northern end, the trail passes Round Hill Elementary School on its east side and a busy shopping area to the west.
Parking is available mid-trail in Washington Park (1610 Burrell St. NW).
They are working in it. Has a lot of potential. Great to run on. I would wait to bike until they finish.
I had a very bad (like, emergency room kind of bad) crash on this greenway near washington park. they have allowed roots to push up the asphalt in a section that is shaded and has poor visibility; none of the damaged area is marked. the city of roanoke should be ashamed of the lack of maintenance. it's a hazard and I would avoid any trail maintained by the city.
This trail does not have any events yet.
