If you plan on riding more than 2 hours do not park at the Visitor's Center. They told us we would not be allowed any longer. Beautiful trail though
Great trails, lots of directions to travel. Some concrete and other asphalt surfaces, as well as some gravel. You can pretty much see all of Casper from this trail.
Very nice trail with concrete and asphalt surface. Wide enough to pass others easily. Great views of Casper from across the river.
Quiet and no foot traffic at all! Saw lots of wildflowers, moose, deer prints & scat. Looks to me like 517 from the east is no longer viable. Have to enter from either Albany or Fox. Going back again today. Bicycled the entire thing with 2 of my kiddos many years ago. Camped at Pelton CG at the end back then. Love that my coworker can follow/meet me in the car for most of it. This helps me accomplish my full break-off-work. Plan to bring my tiny grandson in a jogger stroller on my days off. Eager to hike the entire thing: as part of the MedicineBow 100.
Surprised to see this amazing trail that has great bed and breakfasts along it is not noted as part of the Great American Rail Trail. It sure would help demonstrate more GART completion if it was.
Amazing trail; definitely worth exploring. Awesome interconnected pathway with excellent signage. Most sections are paved and completely separate from the road - even though they parallel many main roads. We went 32 miles in eBikes which was good due to the wild.
A nice ride. The hub is a good place to start.
We took electric scooters and did 16miles of this trail was so beautiful seen 6 deer 5 turkeys will glad go back and explore more
I rode the full length of the trail, from north to south and back. As noted, the north-end trailhead isn't easy to find (head down road 517G, at the sign that says No Outlet). Including the navigation around Fox Park (be certain to pause and read the sign) my Strava recorded the full ride at 45.36 miles and an elevation gain/loss of 922 ft (gotta love railroad grades).
The trail is very remote and exposed, so bring plenty of water and good snacks. I did not see anyone else on trail or in the vicinity, with the exception of a few folks fishing at Lake Owen.
The north end of the trail has sections of loose gravel and a few trees over the path, so you get to practice your cyclocross skills. I was running 42cm tubeless on my gravel bike, which was a perfect setup. Heading south, trail is more tame and seems to be better maintained.
It's a beautiful ride both ways and bring your camera, as there are so many wonderful images to be had. Don't worry about Strava records as you'll be stopping every few minutes to take pictures.
While the ravages of the fire are very evident, it's amazing to see how nature rebuilds and the carpets of wildflowers will leave you in awe, as will the reflections off the many beaver ponds. At times, it smelled like I was at a florist, the flowers were in all their glory.
Do this ride, do it slowly and enjoy!
(I would have posted pictures but couldn't figure out how to do that here.)
Drive from Saratoga to the trailhead at lake Owen in Albany Not easy to find Weather was getting bad so only did 10 miles . Hopefully now that we know where it is we can prepare and do a longer ride. Very hard if not riding a mountain bike Had e bike with fat tires and almost wiped out few times . Overall good trail ride Also will bring bear spray Didn’t see any but you are pretty out there never know !
Trail first of all was very hard to find Drove from Saratoga and thought would at least see some indication there was a trail . Did about 15 miles total on trail peaceful and pretty in some spots . Hard to ride if don’t have mountain bike almost wiped out with a bike with pretty wide tires. Would do again on a day with better weather and would definitely bring bear spray . You never know !
