Greenbrier River Trail
WV - 77 miles
Surfaces: Asphalt,Boardwalk,Crushed Stone
We started at Riverside Park and followed the trail clockwise (the best direction unless a steep hill climb is preferred). Through town we didn’t follow the map exactly, avoided travelling on Main street where more traffic and no bike lanes. There are not any trail signs to follow. Eventually the trail connects to the Carol Sampson Sherick trail. This is the portion of trail which was the old railroad bed. Trail is wide and nicely paved, easy railroad grade climb to top of hill. Saw a couple deer along the trail. Trail could use some weed control love and crack seal but over all good. If wanting a long ride can continue straight at top of hill and follow wide paved path all the way to Ronan. We turned right on Caffrey road, the trail follows alongside road with a curb between road and trail. Next intersection made the right turn and eventually climbed to top of hill overlooking Polson and Flathead Lake. Then the trail goes down the steep grade into town. Eventually wandered city streets back to start. My mileage was to be 10.5 miles and very little deviation from trail, if anything we were a bit short on mileage from not exactly following map. Overall, some nice portions and some not so nice.
There are many trails. One of them goes straight up a slight grade. Dangerous because the maintenance has been forgotten. Tree roots everywhere destroyed the blacktop. There was a new trail we stumbled on by accident. It’s good for now. Scenery was good but hard to enjoy. This is a park they should be maintaining it.
Went from about Plumber to will past Medimont over a few days period. 20 mile increments. Stopped at the bar in Harrison. Fun little place. Also rode the trail in town a little bit. That was ok.

There was a small section of the trail that was good as far as a paved trail goes. When I go back I’ll check if I missed something. Then I’ll update this.
It’s ok. A little on the boring side. Better than a kick in the head
Rode all the trails in Driggs. Kind of lame. I invented my own trails.
Some of the trail needs maintenance. Overall a good ride. Lots of road traffic but the speed limit is 45 so it’s ok for noise
The ride was fairly good. I guess they got the trail as far away from the highway as they could. Lots of cars headed to the park. Non stop noise
The ride is ok thus it got 2 stars. The surface was poorly layed and requires a lot of concentration to not wreck
In its current state it isn’t worth trying to figure out.
Nice ride up and down the ocean front. Good people watching. The walk way is wide. It does need resurfacing.

Rode 16 miles from Cape Disappointment parking lot to the end and back. Liked the whole trail.
I parked in Goddard after reading the previous reviews since it sounded like it had the most to offer. Beautiful park with real bathrooms and a pavilion to relax afterwards. I loved the crushed limestone, it’s easier on the joints. There were a lot of trees for shade earlier in the morning. But later in the day less canopy I’d suspect gets worse. There were so many friendly folks riding, running, walking dogs etc. I highly recommend this one.
There were definitely some areas that needed over due maintenance. Over all it was an enjoyable ride. Did the whole length both ways
If you like potholes, rocks, and ATV's dust then this is the trail for you. We bike with traditional bikes, not fat tire so it was slow going because of potholes and deep gravel in places. Used to be nice bike trail
