Reviewed 2026-10-22. Fresh city specific profile explicitly says this park-side piece has just under half a mile of paved trail and other parts remain undeveloped. Its 1.75-mile total is not a single currently paved ride. Public bicycle use is confirmed by the city’s named pathway directory. This is a source review, not a same-day inspection. Recheck the linked manager before travel.

Map and Directions

Use the named public start and its posted parking signs. The map reference identifies the facility or selected trail area; it is not a surveyed parking stall or navigable route line. Bicycle and e-bike rules can differ; only ordinary bicycle use is established unless noted.
