Such a nice trail and the new boardwalks along the old abandoned locks look amazing. The trail is on both sides of the river, so you may miss one of the trails (beside the golf course if you're not looking for it.) Definitely worth the bike ride or walk.

Rogers Reservoir Conservation Area is a great spot for a relaxing walk or bike ride. The trails are well-maintained and offer a mix of shaded paths and scenic bridges. I loved spotting different birds and flowers along the way, and the reservoir adds a calming touch to the experience. The walk is stroller-friendly, though some areas are a bit bumpy. It’s perfect for families, nature lovers, or anyone looking to unwind.
