About The New River Trail - The New River Trail is a 20-mile long paved multi-use pathway system located in Peoria, Arizona, in the northwest portion of the Phoenix Metropolitan area. It follows the route of New River as it wanders through the residential areas and old farms to the northwest of Highway 101. New River is a natural drainage way, rather than channelized, so there are more native plants and natural areas with opportunities to view wildlife.
The trail runs somewhat parallel to the 101 from W. Happy Valley Road, all the way to the Grand Canal at Bethany Home Road.
Easy long pedal - all paved bikepaths.
Down & back. 1 hour each way (10 miles), not including a 15 - 20 minute stop (cold drink/snack) in the middle. Total 20 miles.
Gentle pace of 10mph - swift, but easy.
Keep up - no gaps. No one left behind.

New to the group??? no problem - come and make some new bicycle friends !
