Summary:
This is a great trail to ride if you don't have the time to leave town. Starting at Lynch Field, where there is a decent amount of parking unless soccer/special events crowds you out, you have a mild uphill climb to the tunnel under the railroad tracks. The trail runs through the middle of Greensburg, and stretches all the way to Youngwood, around 5 1/4 miles, before you come to the railroad museum and parking area. From here, you can continue straight to the dead end at mile 6, or you could turn left after crossing the street, go over the bridge, and turn right to continue towards Westmoreland Community College. The trail goes through the campus, dead-ends at a guard rail around mile 7.62 (from Lynch) near Armbrust, at the edge of a small creek which appears to have once been crossed by a railroad bridge from the pilings. If riding with children, use caution at the busier street crossings at Huff Avenue and Trolley Line near Youngwood, at the crossing by the railroad museum in Youngwood. May not most scenic trail in the world, but worth checking out in my opinion. I ride the entire length here at least twice a week, and often come with my whole family for shorter rides at the Youngwood-Armbrust end of the trail.
