The Eureka Trail is a 5.6-mile rails-to-trails path that connects Athens and Englewood, offering a peaceful route for walking, running, cycling, and horseback riding. This gravel trail follows an old railroad bed through rural landscapes and woodlands, crossing quaint wooden bridges and winding under a canopy of trees. Nature enthusiasts enjoy the shaded, quiet scenery and opportunities to spot wildlife along the way. The trail has trailheads with parking at both ends (Athens and Englewood) and is open year-round, free of charge. Its gentle grade and well-maintained surface make the Eureka Trail accessible for all ages, whether you’re looking for a leisurely stroll or a scenic bike ride.
