The Erie Attica Trail follows the rail bed of the former Erie Attica RR and connects into the Genesee Valley Greenway .
Starting from the parking lot; Map Board.
Note; Heading left the Erie Attica Trail is paved as it travels through a field out Horseshoe Blvd at 0.2 miles.
Heading right the Erie Attica Trail crosses an old RR trestle bridge over the Genesee River. The stone-dust trail travels along a wooded berm with fields on either side. In a few spots the trail dips off the rail bed to avoid missing bridges. Come to the intersection with the Genesee Valley Greenway at 1.1 miles. The Genesee Valley Greenway consists of stone-dust heading north, while south it reverts to cinder, dirt & grass after 1 mile. Look left to spot the 17 Mile Marker (From Rochester) for the Genesee Valley Greenway, as well as, the old RR bridge abutments for the old RR bridge.
