The Kim Williams Trail is a super popular trail in Missoula. It follows along the river the majority of the way, but it is often times tucked in the trees without a lot of views. The section of trail furthest west is a really smooth paved and dirt path. As you get further east, the trail narrows and becomes bumpier. Some choose to ride a bike with more suspension for this rougher section, but most touring bikes can handle the trail just fine from start to finish.
