Where to find Black River Running Trail Head

What runners say

This is a VERY nice rail trail and yet it's almost not used. We recently walked a couple miles and only saw 2 bicyclists go by. It's virtually flat, nicely paved, and has lots of shade for the hot, sunny days. Previously, we biked the whole length and went on to Fort Drum.

The most beautiful and relaxing place to be. These are from winter summer photos are AMAZING.

Love going here. It is a great place to walk or run. I have even seen people riding bikes. In the fall, it is great to see all the leaves change colors. There are spots where you can walk to the river. I have never fished here, but I do see people fishing, and here it's not bad.

This place is fantastic for anyone wanting to walk or run outdoors... great family outings and bikes are welcome and so are dogs. Water views along the black river.
