Reviews
Quiet, flat, peaceful, and very nice scenery. I recommend either early morning or evening rides because there is hardly any shade on this 6 mile bike path.
Very pleasant ride through gently rolling farm fields. Well maintained asphalt trail. Rich with native wildflowers & plants. Bradley’s restaurant & Depot restaurant on the trail route.
Great space to walk my dog and be worry free from speeding traffic. Very peaceful and quiet in the early morning hours. Very much like trying to identify the different trees along the trail, as well as the flowers. Been here just under a month have only seen rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks—hope to find other wildlife. I know there are skunks about, just haven’t seen them yet!!
A trail of just over seven miles is a ‘country’ delight. Brought back wonderful memories of how life should be…simple and enjoyable.
Nice paved trail for the most part but there is about a mile of on road riding. Very scenic farmland along the route. Too bad no good destination restaurants , breweries or wineries would be ideal for this.
