4.5 miles of the 7 mile trail has been completed. The trail is opened for hiking, biking and horseback riding. It's a beautiful easy trail along the Piney River in Nelson and Amherst Counties. Parking for cars and horse trailers is available at Piney River. A smaller lot for cars only is located at the intersection of the trail and Roses Mill Rd at milepost 1.8 of the trail.
The trail then extends 2.75 miles to the Naked Creek Bridge. The last 2.5 miles to Tye River Depot are scheduled to open Spring 2010.
The trail is open sunrise to sunset.
