Swamp Rabbit Trail - Greenville, SC

 

Section of trail I rode - 21 mi round trip

Monday afternoon I got to the Walmart in Travelers Rest, SC. This section of trail is North of Greenville. 

I started at Gateway Park about a mile from the Walmart, the parking lot had plenty of room for my RV and I biked to Reedy River Falls in downtown Greenville.

I loved this trail, very smooth wide asphalt with gentle hills. There are mileage markers every 1/2 mi, so it's hard to get lost.

There are many places along the way for food or drink, but this is also a very scenic trail. I took lots of pictures. There were a lot of people making use of the trail, walking, jogging and biking, but it was far from crowded. It was a nice suuny cool day, temps started in 50's and got to the mid 60's by lunch time.

I was going to bike another section on Wednesday but it looks like some rain may be coming into the area. So after my bike ride I left for Augusta, Ga at 12:30pm and got to my Walmart stop at 3:30pm. Traffic was a little heavier but no delays.

Filled up on gas at Sam's club for only $2.50/gal. I've gone 800 miles so far.

So after biking the Savananah River on Wednesday, depending on the weather forecast, I may head to Florida.

I can't believe this small town has put so much money into a bike trail. It's the best I've seen in any city, large or small.
