You can run, walk, bike or rollerblade for miles and miles along this trail. To get to the Monon Trail from our house, walk out the driveway and turn left and go down 2 houses to the corner; turn left again and walk up 5 or 6 houses on Kimlough Drive to Kimlough Circle, turn right and walk to the end of the circle where you will see the sidewalk that goes between the houses that puts you on the Monon Trail. Less that a mile to your left (north) up the trail puts you at the YMCA, or Kroger, or Whole Foods, or Chipotle, or even Target on 86th. A little over 2 miles to your right (south) down the trail, takes you over the White River bridge (very pretty) and puts you at some great restaurants in Broadripple.
