Parking area at the bottom is closed (Near Dollar General). We parked across the street and walked the gravel up to Star Trail Trailhead.

The Memorial Bridge of Roanoke supports the Roanoke River Greenway and has wide sidewalks on both sides of the car lanes that bikes use. The bridge has two-lane traffic and spans 785 feet across the Roanoke River. While riding here, pay attention and find all five plaques, with quotes from Patrick Henry, Theodore Roosevelt, Stonewall Jackson, and Thomas Jefferson. The last plaque has the names of World War I victims.

The greenway is an easily accessible multi-use trail that runs along the Roanoke River. There are multiple points of access and a number of nice parks along its route. It can get busy with cyclists, walkers, and runners though so be aware of your fellow trail users.

Wasena Park is a green space along the Roanoke River. The Roanoke River Greenway bike-friendly path runs through the park, and the park offers a playground, two picnic shelters, the Roanoke Skate Park, a baseball diamond, a basketball court, ADA-accessible picnic shelters with tables, lights at night, electrical outlets, and grills, as well as ADA-accessible restrooms.

The Roanoke River stretches 410 miles through southern Virginia and northeastern North Carolina. It is a vital habitat for large numbers of fish, birds, and mammals, as well as a recreational area for locals.

The history of the railway is present in many corners of the city. If you come to visit, don't hesitate to see one of the many interesting museums (the science museum, the planetarium, the transport museum...). And of course, enjoy the wide range of bars and restaurants where you can eat properly.

This bit is a lovely paved walk along the Roanoke. It is a very charming walk during sunny and warm days!
