Confirmed from Mohawk-Hudson Bike Trail Spur's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
What runners say about Mohawk-Hudson Bike Trail Spur
“Beautiful bike trail great for biking and for walks.”
This is a great place to go biking it is nice sometimes in the sun and sometimes in the shade in woods. There are very few hills and it's all paved so biking is very easy. Also the path is very wide which makes it very easy to pass people. Also the view of the river is beautiful.
Wonderful access point for the surrounding neighborhoods. Tax dollars well spent. Beautiful mohawk river and bike path
Better for bikes, not much quarter given to hikers. A nice area, though, pretty wetlands and a well paved, level path
Great addition to our neighborhood. Kids love the access to the hike bath.
