Well, it depends.
Stick to paved exclusive bike trails and ride like you have some active brain cells, little impact.
The rails to trails are simply railroad tracks paved for bike riding. There isn't much in the order of gradient changes.
However, if possible ride armed. I'm concerned about critters, but there have been reports of unscrupulous types stalking rails to trails.
