July 2020. Parked at Tarr Road in Middlefield. Biked North to the end in Chardon, and back for a 25 mile round trip. Entire trail is asphalt paved.
The southern section from Middlefield to Headwaters Park is accessible to horses.
North of Headwaters Park is the trails highest point so you will notice it while pedaling.
The trail goes through Amish country of fields and some wooded areas. There are 5 small covered bridges along the trail.
Trail services in Middlefield include places to eat, and a few stores / shops and if you need water you can get some in Middlefield.
No recent reviews so I thought it was time. Yes the trail could use some tlc, but it’s not that bad. Rode the whole length, yes lots of grass but very level and no traffic. Lots of shade few bugs and found two side trails that you can walk and explore. First time to see the fish very unusual.
Volunteers recently began reinstallation of a puncheon boardwalk approximately 1.25 miles from Kidds Mill trailhead. This effort opens up about 2.5 miles of trail which were previously difficult to access. Many thanks to R. Knight and B. Frazier! More boardwalk to follow in the same area.
Living in the North Hills of Pittsburgh, my daughter and I planned on spending most of the day on Presque Isle. We enjoy both running and cycling, but I wanted to find a Trail for running, before heading up to Erie for cycling. The Ernst Bike Trail is minutes off of I-79 and is really a pleasant surprise. We started at mile 0 and ran 3 miles out and back. While it's named "Bike Trail", it is perfect for running. Very cool trail with some sunny areas along with heavily wooded and shaded areas, which was great for running. Well maintained, asphalt surface with freshly cut grass on both sides of the trail...nothing overgrown. Neat covered bridge, too!
Hiked from Big Bend. Trail is very well maintained and thank you to the volunteers that have been working on the trail upkeep. Joe was there working on the day we were hiking.
We hiked up towards New Hamburg for 3 miles and made our turnaround for a nice 6-mile round trip hike.
Some areas were kinda buggy so you may want to hit your self with the insect repellent before you take off.
The river level was low and it was muddy looking. There is a section off to the side of the trail which is usually submerged in several feet of water was actually dry. Never have seen it that dry.
We saw one person on a mountain bike and 3 people on horses come by.
The new mile markers are great.
Always great to bike on the trail in addition to the Metro Parks Bikeway which connects at the Mahoning & Trumbull County lines. Niles is approx 4 miles in length and the adjoining Metro Parks Bikeway is 11 miles. Trail starts in the city of Niles and goes through a park like area and old industrial sites. Trail in very good cared for condition.
The most fun I’ve had on a trail ride ever! This trail is nothing but up and down and twists and turns! Constant shifting, good speed, and honestly the most fun I’ve had on two wheels since my motorcycle days! Now, if you are wanting to come here with your Huffy single speed beach cruiser, this isn’t the trail for you. The route is anything but flat. There were two sections that brought you out onto the road and were not marked well (I had to ask someone where to go), but everything else was just so good that I can’t bring my rating lower than 5 stars. My biggest complaint: I just wish it was closer!
The park's open! Marina is open and they offer boat rentals and have a bait shop. The restrooms in the park are open along the trail. Great State Park to spend the day and and enjoy time on the bike trail.
The installation of mileage markers from Big Bend to Kidds Mill trailhead is nearly complete! The final marker is being manufactured and will be installed at Kidds Mill next week. The trail was measured through the use of three GPS units. Final length was measured at 8.75 miles. Thanks to Bob and Donna K, Ron and Gloria K, and Terry J for all your patience and help.
Short and sweet with beautiful views of the cultural gardens. If you want a longer/challenging ride take the lakeshore afterward
Fourteen eager volunteers spent a 65°-70° day completing a number of water mitigation projects on the Shenango Trail. Started the day at 10 AM. Perfect day for working; bright sun, clear skies, and dry weather. Hiked in about 3/4 of a mile to several normally damp areas of the trail. Due to a lack of recent rains the trail was exceptionally dry. Installed knicks, drainage sumps, and rolling grade dips to deal with any water which may run down the trail during rainy weather.
Each volunteer worked on all three types of installations and gained much needed experience. Completed all work by Noon and ended at that time. Several volunteers continued the hike nornorthwardthward toward the two mile mark surveying the trail for future work projects. Thanks to all who participated in the scheduled workday! Next workday is scheduled for June 28, 2020 at the Kidds Mill trailhead. Check the Shenango River Watchers website or Facebook page for updates.
