Yesterday we did start at the Tingler Road trail stop and rode up to Losantville and back, around 42 miles total. We LOVE this trail! My wife is excited to come back and ride the remainder sometime. A perfect trail to get lost in your thoughts, listen to the many beautiful bird songs and make train whistle sounds at the W signs signs
This trail is closed 2.5 miles north of the Richmond trailhead. There are no signs indicating this or a detour around to connect it. Construction on I-70 is ongoing and I’ve been informed that the trail is open north of this point.
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.
We started in Xenia went to Octa and back to Xenia. Amazing trail to ride, there are roads to cross so make sure you stop and look. We had a great time on this trail. It is well kept up and mostly shaded, which was perfect for a July ride. Great job on this trial Ohio.
From Xenia Station to Octa and back, it is a smooth trail and relatively flat. The consistent tree canopy provides shade from the sun just when you need it (although the tree debris creates some hazards). The majority of the trail is in Greene County and well-maintained. The portion in Fayette County has some overgrowth along the sides. Overall, it was a beautiful day to ride!
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.
I have hiked this trail about 30 times and 3.3 miles is point to point the total mileage down and back is 7 miles. If you combine this trail with the Luther Warren peace path it is a little over 9 miles.
I’ve ridden this trail down to Xenia and back last summer and it was nice for the most part. This year I noticed a bit more unmarked large bumps and aggressive erosion alongside the creek. Currently the bridge to cross Buck Creek is closed and I’ve not come across anything indicating it will be fixed. Although the bridge appeared to be sturdy enough to support a walk, my boyfriend and I found an alternate route by car. Biking on Croft road did not feel safe to me but, other bikers accepted the unmarked detour. untilyou a
Loved the trail - only did Xenia to Yellow Springs and back, in conjunction with one of the connector trails. Signs use trail numbers vs names, which we didn’t realize until we were on trail… Also, not clear signage at key intersections where trails intersect or turn. Won’t be a problem if you’re expecting/prepared for it, but not as clear and user friendly as many other top tier rail trails we’ve ridden.
