Riding Bikes on the Sawmill Trail in Summerville, South Carolina

Eric studies the map of
the Sawmill Trail in
Summerville.

This is a multi- use

Rail to Trail.

This area has instructions

& simple equipment

for circuit exercises.

Benches with a trash
& recycle can







This is one of the recent upgrades to the Sawmill Trail.

W can't go under

this bridge.

Eric & I are diverted

to a local road.

The trail curves as it follows

the Sawmill Branch Canal.

This Muscovy Duck waddled 

over to us, expecting a snack.

We followed the trail

under a bridge.

These utility poles were
treated with Chemthane.

The treatment creates the
poles' rusty appearance.






I think the the "rusty" look blends into the surrounding area.  Some people complain that this type of power pole is unsightly.

Another bridge to cross.

A different set of circuit

exercises is available

to trail users.

This 13 mile trail is very flat.  The only challenges are crossing roads... Some of them are heavily trafficked.
