Labor Day weekend, Sunside (Route 305 in Champion) to Orwell at Route 322 and back. 35 mile round trip. Beautiful day on the trail. Plenty of shade. Most of this section is wooded with a few working farms along the way. Trail is paved and there are some bumpy sections. We enjoyed our ride on this Holiday weekend.
Rode from the Franklin trailhead off of route 322 to the Kennerdell Tunnel and a bit beyond. The majority of the trail was paved and smooth. The gravel section just North of Kennerdell was challenging for my wife and the couple riding with us, (Skinny tires) Otherwise a scenic and fun adventure! (A 5 Beer Rating)🍺🍻🍻😎
We biked the entire length of the trail and it's various surfaces. Meadville end is paved and well shaded. On the western side of Route 19 it's gravel for a few miles, very rough. Traveling further West towards Conneaut Lake it's dirt and bumpy and seems to have gotten worse since we last rode on this section. Will stick to it on foot or snowshoeing in the Winter. Pretty scenery though and a good bit shaded. We ate at Silver Shores in Conneaut Lake across the street from the trail. At the Conneaut Lake trailhead, just behind Conneaut Wine Cellars, there is a new pavlion which is very nice.
After weeks and weeks of record breaking temperatures, finally a break and a cooler day to head to the Shenango Trail. Very well shaded but a bit buggy being along the river. Still a great day for a hike and to spend time in the woods. After June flooding, and now a draught almost, the water level very low and muddy.
Nice, well maintained, and a variety of uses. We bike, but we have seen skaters, bikers, joggers, walkers, wagons, and strollers. The little covered bridge is a nice stop in Teegarden. Nice mix of shade and sun. Definitely recommend
Nice trail close to home for us. On nice days we bike the trail to town, ending near water tower, stop and get a bite to eat and ride back to Cenfield. Pleasant and always see wildlife.
We accessed this trail in Franklin where the Allegheny River Trail ends. Seamless connection offers an additional 7 miles from Franklin to Oil City. Flat rail trail, paved, follows the Allegheny River. Historic signs and sights along the way. A little bit of shaded areas.
We have been riding this trail for 3 years. Use caution on several hills and curves. It appears as if storms or runoff have caused some ruts that were “filled” with very large gravel making bike control harder. For walking, it would be okay.
The park on the east end has been repaved and can add a mile to your ride. You can add another mile at the park In Mantua The trail is in good condition just slight erosion off one area, there are some bumps from the asphalt to the dirt as you pass some roads, Most mile markers are not legible but no biggie! Very shaded in summer and fall colors could be spectacular
Nice, well maintained trail. The section from Lisbon to Teegarden is especially beautiful, although there is a bushier section that is on road, albeit a less traveled back road. A short detour at Teegarden will take you to a covered bridge.
