A nice ride. The hub is a good place to start.
I enjoy this trail whenever I’m in the area. It’s well maintained. Scenic with lots of wildlife - watch out for chipmunks! If you don’t stop at Fast Eddie’s in downtown Belleville for a draft, you’re missing out! (They have excellent food too!)
Trail is 12.5 miles in length and runs from Lisbon up to Washingtonville. Mile 0 is in Lisbon. There is a gradual incline the first few miles. At mile 10 is Leetonia. About a mile through town and the trail picks up again and goes to Washingtonville. Most of the trail covered/wooded. You will pass some farms and go through farmlands. Always a nice ride on this trail. In Lisbon at the trailhead, there is a new canoe/kayak launch and a few benches and a little park.
This trail is always a great trail to ride, well maintained. A variety of wooded areas, commercial areas, residential and some farmlands. Quiet for the most part. A few road crossings. Parking at mile marker 5, Kirk Road offers a picnic shelter, bike rentals and a restrooms. There is also parking at the Canfield Fair area of the trail. Trail is mainly open with a few areas of shade, keep in mind on a hot summer day!
We took electric scooters and did 16miles of this trail was so beautiful seen 6 deer 5 turkeys will glad go back and explore more
Had bikes/ hikes along the towpath at multiple segments. Wonderful connection to nature and important part of history. Now I moved to some eastern city in the US claiming "great park and trail system". Totally not on par with what Cleveland MetroParks/ Towpath can offer. Enjoy and support!
Quick, safe, and smooth access into the small community! Good sidetrack for camping and entertainment. Stop by Beano’s to have a libation in town (big OSU fan) and respect for Armed Service personnel!
Unique and beautiful. Loved the wetlands and lily pads, as well as the fields. Well maintained.
Nicely done urban trail alongside public transit rail track. Short distance connects multiple trails heading to all points from downtown Cleveland.
We rode the trail from South end-point to the Northernmost end-point on a street bike and a three wheeled recumbent. The trail is really flat with very few elevation changes but it does have a few spots where the tree roots have raised the tar surface but overall condition we'd rate the trail is a 4.5 out of 5. SHADED!!! Very few spots where you'll need protection from sun exposure because of the huge tree canopy over 98% of the trail. Very remote trail with very little chance for assistance if needed, but there are three restrooms (start, end and middle). Watch out for the squirrels!!; that's why we wear helmets, 4 close-calls!!
I ride this trail frequently. It is very well maintained with a super smooth asphalt surface. Depending on the day and weather there can be other walkers, runners or roller bladers but I rarely find it problematic. You can extend the trip all the way up to Lake Erie which is an awesome way to spend a day. This is an amazing, safe ride that is a must-do. I love it.
