A very nicely developed trail located right in the middle of a fairly large city (that would be Richmond). Tight and inermediate to difficult single track that was pretty much hand built by some great volunteers. The sculpting (strange word, but it seems to fit) of this trail is perfect. Nothing is impossible but much of it is really hard. Great scenery. No really long climbs though. It is good to connect this with a trip to Belle Isle.
Located with the City of Richmond Park System along the James River on the south side between the Lee Bridge and the Boulevard (Nickel) bridge (East and West) and between the train tracks and Riverside Drive (North and South). Good access at the Reedy Creek parking lot. Can also be accessed off of the end of the Nickel bridge, but you must cross the road, which can be dangerous, or from Belle Isle.<br /><br />Reedy Creek river access is located off of Riverside Drive. <br /><br />A short section of the Buttermilk trail continues west of Boulevard.
