If you email the Charlottesville Area Mountain Bike Club (cambc.org), you can probably get some good info from them. Otherwise, feel free to ask us at the Charlottesville Area Trail Runners (charlottesvilleareatrailrunners.blogspot.com). I think both clubs have email groups you can probably get a message out to.<br /><br />Enjoy!sumidiothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14998929191458452400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1288865811708987253.post-11410865699922817432012-08-12T15:45:53.997-04:002012-08-12T15:45:53.997-04:00Hey Don, it's hiking only.

There are some parts you can bike, but to do the full loop you need to be on foot.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312832447975423228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1288865811708987253.post-42559418919327534772012-08-12T12:51:43.230-04:002012-08-12T12:51:43.230-04:00Hi, I'll be visiting Charlottsville in October...Hi, I'll be visiting Charlottsville in October and am glad I found out about the trail.

A trail entrance is past the 2nd or 3rd house on the left, and that lets you out in Azalea Park.<BR/>The trail is bit north of the "A" here: http://maps.google.com/maps?q=mobile+ln+22903&ie=UTF-8&oe=utf-8&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a&um=1&sa=X&oi=geocode_result&resnum=1&ct=imageMarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17410646579770441929noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1288865811708987253.post-56559456515674135602008-08-31T17:44:00.000-04:002008-08-31T17:44:00.000-04:00Yeah, I'm still not sure about some pieces down on...Yeah, I'm still not sure about some pieces down on 5th street. I think when some vegetation dies down I might have another look at it. Until then, I'm happy with the northern half (and avoiding those train tracks).<BR/><BR/>Hope your next hike goes better.sumidiothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14998929191458452400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1288865811708987253.post-30518091223393603882008-08-31T11:34:00.000-04:002008-08-31T11:34:00.000-04:00Ha ha oh man I could have used these last time I w...Ha ha oh man I could have used these last time I walked the trail. I got very turned around at 5th street, and walking across the railroad tracks was too intense for my tastes. I ended up cutting the trip short after that (walking up Market Street to downtown).Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11312832447975423228noreply@blogger.com
