The park is open daily from 7:00 a.m. until 11:00 p.m. (normal hours for most trails around here) Pets are allowed, but must be on a leash. People are really good about this, as well as the carry in carry out policy. Love all the wildlife I've seen here, lot's of deer walking through the area... and even across the trail. Tons of small animals as well. Very peaceful and quite. I recommend grabbing a coffee and going early in the am.

During Autumn it's breathtakingly beautiful and if you want to experience it all during one day I'm sure biking would be doable. Now if you keep going instead of veering off to Rush, which is gorgeous during the Fall, you will end up at some kind of junction for the Lehigh Valley Trail, which basically has a mini-museum about trains. The east-west part of the trail has a number of bridges which are interesting, but mainly worth while of either you're a history buff or you're like me and enjoy having a sense of continuity with your running adventures. There is also a stretch of trail that runs from Genesee Valley Park to right before the RIT Barnes & Noble, and that one is okay. I really wish that part of the trail connected all the way to the one near Veterans Memorial Park, but what can you do.

There are some parts under construction, and the detours aren't well marked and involve walking along the roadside which wasn't as nice as the trail of course.

It is an easy walk though if you have anyone in your group who can't do the rocky, more rugged trails in the area.

If I had to choose just one word to describe this trail, I'd go with surreal. In my opinion it is…read moreone of Rochester's greatest hidden gems, and I'm surprised to be the first to review it. The trail more or less begins on the other side of the river from the U of R campus, and you go through Genesee Valley Park to the old railroad bridge that crosses the Erie Canal, and basically just keep on going. My guess is that most people get spooked by the industrial district that runs along Scottsville Road, and that's unfortunate because there's a very beautiful area that runs through that area. part of it appears to have been reclaimed by nature, but it's worth venturing through because there is a really peaceful area right by the river where you feel as if you're in the middle of a wilderness even though you're just on the other side of the river from East River Road. The trail sort of breaks up once you hit Scottsville Road, but picks up again down the road when you get to Little Black Creek Park, which, by the way, is an amazing place to visit right after a bad ice storm. The trail continues south and almost reaches another stretch of trail on the opposite side of the east/west railroad track that runs through Henrietta, but I guess there just hasn't been enough interest in this trail to connect it better thus far. Once on the other side of the tracks you will come across a massive culvert and then once on the other side of Jefferson Road you'll see a whole bunch of really old derelict telephone poles along with the outline of the dried out canal that used to run parallel to the trail. Eventually you will reach Scottsville, which is a rather pretty, idyllic small town with a charming graffiti bridge park and elevated walkway that leads to the trail. From there the trail goes on to Avon, and during the Fall it is quite lovely. Upon reaching Avon, I highly recommend taking the detour trail that leads to that town because there is a lovely bridge there and the town itself has a very "Mayberry" vibe to it. Go a little further and you'll find a cool place called the Five Arch Bridge on the outskirts of town. From Avon to Fowlerville, you'll see some interesting ruins of the canal from sections of the trail that are at a significantly higher elevation than than the Genesee, and from Fowlerville to Piffard there is a nice detour I found (due to necessity r/t flooding) that runs by a really cool Catholic monastery. Their chapel is as serene as it is awe-inspiring and their shop has a variety of baked goods and jams, my favorite being Elderberry jam. Once you reach Cuylerville there is an interesting tractor museum and I absolutely recommend taking the road on a detour east to see an old Revolutionary War site where a couple soldiers got tortured to death by the Seneca as well as Fall Brook Falls (but don't drink the water from the falls...just trust me on that one). Also along the way there is a barn with a silo where this massive tree grew in the middle of it and you can see the top of the tree emerging from the silo. Mount Morris is another quaint small town and then when you reach Sonyea things start to get weird. First there is an old Shaker Village and an abandoned colony for epileptics that is somewhat evocative of the derelict asylum from "Until Dawn" and then you reach a prison that has all these historical buildings built up in a highly militarized way, almost like something you'd see in an episode of "The Handmaid's Tale." The main map you find of the Genesee Valley Greenway from Google is somewhat misleading because the color difference between the main trail and "closed" is very subtle and although the original railroad did go through the correctional facility and then the state forest on the other side of it, there isn't really much of a trail that goes through all of that, although there is definitely some kind of path and I must say that I rather cherish the memories I have of going through Aurora and seeing some of the Mennonite farmland that I passed through on the way back. My advice is once you reach Sonyea make sure you have the AllTrails app downloaded because the NikeRunClub and UnderArmour apps are pretty much useless when it comes to finding the beginnings and ends of these trails. The trail does continue on further than what I have explored, and I hope to someday pick up where I left off.

So there are not that many disc golf courses or dog parks here in the Rochester area. This park is…read moreboth!! This park is located in Henreitta and is a super clean and nice both dog park and disc golf course. The disc golf course is not a full disc golf course it's only 9 holes and they are par 3 or less for each hole. Making it to be somewhat "easier" of a course. However in my opinion this is an easier course than most bc the disc golf bins are so much closer to you than other parks such as elision. I do like the Elison park more in other respects though. The dog park, I've been to all the dog parks as well. This I also my favorite dog park in Rochester. They have two dog parks in one - one for small dogs and one for large dogs. The small dogs are allowed to go into the large dog area which is much bigger and has a little creek to plY and get extremely dirty in ... the smaller dog park is only for small dogs and has a lot of fun "playgrounds" to do tricks with your dog and no water! So you and your pup won't leave dirty. Both also have doggy fountains and doggy bags to keep the dog park cleans. FYI the disc golf course is public and free to anyone; the dog parks is Monroe county memebership through the libraries in Rochester and need a pass to get into. The pass includes the 4 only "private"dog parks in Rochester and is 20 dollars a year. If you love your dog and your dog loves playing with strangers it's worth it for sure. Happy golfing and dog playing :)

While I adore disc golf's blending with other park dwellers, it is refreshing to play a course where the only other people there are disc golf enthusiasts. The on site bathrooms are not always open, but they are maintained well by the Chili parks department. The front nine finish at the parking lot, and the back nine starts at the same place. This is an underrated perk; it is nice to play one half of the course or start on the back nine if there is a crowd. Every tee is concrete and long enough for my ridiculous approach. The course itself is a challenge for all skill levels. My wife has a weaker arm than I do, but my long shots are punished if they stray from the fairways. There are four notable holes on the course. Hole #6 plays out of the woods, across the creek, and dog ears hard to the left. Hole #11 is a monster; a 911 foot par 4. Hole #17 plays with an old grain silo as an obstacle. And Hole #18 is a beautiful back and forth 716 foot that plays to a man made hill. The bugs can be out of control here, but it's summer. Complaining about mosquitoes seems crazy. This is a beautiful course and a must play for every fan of the sport.
