The trail was well marked, scenic and well-maintained. We rode it twice, once in each direction.
I would not suggest parking at the Trenton Trailhead. There are Cracks all the way across the trail for the first 8 miles or so, which means constant bumps. Also, no shade at all for those first 8 miles out of Trenton.
We started the trail at the horse park, and rode south from there. The scenery was gorgeous, although there is not a lot of shade. Luckily, there was a break in the weather when we were there from the oppressive heat we’ve been having.
We rode from the Xenia station to Yellow Springs very nice ride and sunny and shady both very nice ride paved trail well marked Love Yellow Springs with its bike friendly and a lot of eateries I will be going back
We loved this trail even road some of the little Miami trail with it. Yes there are hills but they were lots of fun. Hubs and I love to ride and find great trails to ride.
My husband and I rode the trail this morning. We are staying at the RV Park/Kentucky Horse Park so getting on the trail was very easy from our site. No loading up the bike and trike on the truck and driving to a starting point. The trail is nice with well maintained asphalt. The grass along the trail edges had been freshly mowed. You have to cross some streets but it wasn't a problem. Only complaint was it could have used more shade trees. Definitely a worth while ride.
This trail really isn't much of a trail as at least half of it is on roads used by cars and in most of those places the shoulder is a foot or two at the most so you truly are on the road. The one saving grace is that the roads are very lightly traveled. The west parts where it is trail is nice and scenic, the east part is noticeably older although in decent shape. The trail does have moderate hills and is very shady. The trail would be much higher rated if it wasn't on roads for over half of it.
Couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful day and temperature. The trail was really nice. We parked at the spot near the horse park and road toward the end point near the horse park. The horses were still grazing in the morning prior to the opening of the park. We road to Newtown Pike and had lunch at the Jimmy John’s. We decided not to continue into town along the trail. Instead we headed back to the end point near the horse park again. All together we rode 19.8 miles and were blessed with a nice breeze. So glad we made the drive from Louisville. A nice change and beautiful landscapes.
Love this trail from outside of Piqua near the lake and dam, to Troy. Was a paved trail with a few bridges and hills. Little challenging if you are not use to grades on trails. Few Porta potties along the way. Benches too.
This trail is fantastic and an easy day ride. I would not venture any farther north than the Hartman Rock Garden, which I would recommend seeing. That’s because the trail is dangerous in Springfield. It’s scary, goes through a rough part of town, with loose dogs, shady characters and “call 911” painted along the trail for good reason. Heading south from the rock garden is a joy with many sights along the way. This is one of my favorite rides in Ohio so far.
