A great ride- if you split it in Damascus it is two 16 miles days. Each side is a "different" ride. A lot of fun. Best to do White Top to Damascus on a Friday as Saturdays can get REALLY crowded.

I started on foot in Abingdon, hoping I could make it to Damascus this time, but I'll need to build up to it, I suppose. I have driven to Damascus and walked a couple of miles in either direction, though. It's a wide, well tended path, with folks on bikes and walking, even riding horses. Beautiful scenery, and a lot...

4 reviews My wife and I joined another couple for this ride. It was a great experience. Very enjoyable. Mostly downhill ride but you could pedal as much as you like to add to the workout. Stunningly beautiful scenery... we will definitely be back

I don't know how we did not find out or get to the Creeper Trail before we finally did...so beautiful and full of nature, kids enjoyed it. We have done both sides of the trail. The full trail is approximately 34 miles with Damascus in the middle. I definitely suggest only doing each side (17 miles each) first before trying...

Awesome experience! Well worth the drive to get to Damascus, along with the 30 minute shuttle to get to White Top. Our shuttle driver was awesome and shared some pretty cool stories.
Though the trail was quite busy, Everyone on the trails was so friendly. This is a really long shot, but I wanted to thank everyone who helped encourage...

My family and I set out on this adventure early one Saturday morning. We parked in Abingdon and were shuttled to Whitetop to drive our bikes the full 34 miles back to Abingdon. The first 17 miles....absolutely gorgeous and such a beautiful ride. It was at a down hill slope the entire time and there were some great places to...

We started our ride from Whitetop to Damascus which is all downhill. This is a plus if you don't want to make the climb up the mountain. Beautiful streams and little waterfalls cascading over boulders. There are several small bridges that span the valleys along the way. Restrooms are 3 to 4 miles apart at different rest areas. Will making...

I absolutely love to come and ride or walk the trail in the fall well all seasons at that. But fall is my absolute favorite with the trees changing colors and the cool air just makes it a perfect ride.

You must ride the creeper from Whitetop to Damascus. Downhill or flat the entire way. Anytime I'm anywhere near the area I make sure and ride. Damascus is also a neat town to camp and eat out.

My wife and I haven't rode bike in a long time and decided it was time we started back. We were in town for a wedding and had a free day to explore the area. We read about the Creeper Trail and thought it would be a good trail to start back on, since it was mostly down hill. We...
