Beautiful Spring day for a ride. Got through that rough Winter and mostly rainy Spring now time to enjoy the trail. Parked at the North Bloomfield trailhead on Route 87. Headed south for about 10 miles and turned around then North to Orwell and back. Enjoyable trail and ride!
This is the second time riding the WRG.We started at The Rock Creek Falls Trailhead. Still like because of the wide trail. We also found when you get to the Austinburg Trail Head that about 500 feet west of it is a great coffee shop. They roast their own coffee and have fresh baked pastries. A small coffee and tea and 2 banana bread with chocolate was around $10.00. We like to support local businesses along trails if we can. Safe travels.
I have to say a big THANK YOU to the Portage County Parks District for repairing a good portion of the sections of the trail. So much smoother. Keep up the good work.
May 2025-Spring Ride. Great ride as always and enjoy visiting the Spillway. Trail is approx 3.5 miles in length, flat and paved. Mid point is the Spillway. Plenty of parking and restrooms.
Last Friday a buddy and I rode the Niles Greenway & the Metroparks Bikeway. While I liked the Metroparks section a tad better the Niles was certainly nice. There were a few nice bridges to ride over and a fantastic picnic area at the north trailhead. I believe the length on TrailLink for this trail is incorrect though. According to the signs along the trail it is 3.87 miles long and that matches pretty closely to what I got on my Garmin. The Niles is a bit more urban or light industrial and has 10 road crossings so keep that in mind. If you're on the Metroparks trail be sure to ride the Niles also.
A buddy and I rode the Metroparks Bikeway and the Niles Greenway on Friday. My overall impression of the trail was very good. The pavement is nice and the Kirk Rd. trailhead where we started was very nice also. The downsides of the trail are actually quite minor. There are cracks in the pavement on the section north of Kirk Rd but unlike some other reviewers who saw them as awful I found them just a bit of a distraction. If you've ever ridden paved trails with root or frost heaves these are nothing. I'm not sure how you could wreck on them as I believe someone suggested. The other downside is the number of road crossings. By our count I believe we had 13 crossings. Double that for a round trip of course. The route south from Kirk Rd. was my favorite though, fewer crossings, no cracks and a bit more wooded of farmland feeling. I have no regrets riding this trail.
Rode the trail on 3/8/25 and it has fallen into disrepair the path is littered with debris, the rail between the trail and the cliff is broken with many sections heavily damaged, some parts of the trail surface is beginning to breakup and slide down the hillside. The city of Cleveland has responsibility for the maintenance of this trail according to our council woman but the city has neglected this critical pathway to the lower section of the towpath.
My family likes to ride this trail together - it is quiet, generally quite well maintained (although can occasionally get a bit muddy in the spring) and is relatively flat and approachable for the family. This was a great find!
What a beautiful trail and obviously loved and taken care of by the community. Smooth paving, beautiful scenery, gorgeous covered bridges and benches and washrooms along the way. What a gem! So glad we rode!
The crown jewel of trails in Ashtabula County Ohio!
Love this trail and it is open all year round.
I suggest starting it at the Munson Hill Trailhead or the Austinburg Trailhead. Rent an E-Bike during the summer at On the Lake Electric Bike Company. They drop off the bikes at the trailhead.

My wife and I live in Streetsboro and ride the trail from Peck Road east of Ravenna to Kent and back. Love the entire length of the trail. Unfortunate that about 1/2 mile near Kent is becoming very rough with tree roots pushing up the asphalt. Recently we have seen markings like there are plans to re-do some of the worst sections. We would love to see a better way to transition from the eastern section to the western rather than walking the bikes up stairs and crossing a road.
