Very nice trail, only downside is to complete the loop you have to ride from the parking area to the Marina on a roadway.
Parked at the trailhead parking lot in Emlenton. You must drive down the bike trail about 500 feet and parking is on the right. The actual trail starts at Main Street and 8th Street at the Post Office Parking lot but trail parking is down the trail a bit. We rode 11 miles out and 11 miles back and I would say that 10 of the 11 miles are very bumpy. I ride an all steel Surly with 29x2 tires and this ride was rough. I would not recommend riding this part of the trail on a road bike with narrow tires. Although it was early September a lot a leaves covered the trail so seeing bumps and root-heaves was impossible, even going less than 10mph. Two downed trees were across the trail but easily rode around them. On a positive note, the trail is easy to find, there is ample parking, the trail is flat and very scenic as it parallels the Allegheny River the entire time. There are many nice private properties along the way and some benches occasionally, but those could be private as well. There were two porta-john toilets at the trailhead parking lot. Had the trail been smooth it would have been a great ride but this was one that I was glad when it was done. Oh yeah, the tunnel, about 4 miles from trailhead, is long and dark and at the very beginning, had a lot of water coming in from the ceiling, even though it was a very sunny day. Make sure to take a light with you. We only encountered one tunnel in the first 11 miles but there are more further on.
We rode the GAP from Cedar Creek Park to the Boston trailhead at the base of the Historic Boston Bridge and back. About 36 miles round trip. What a great ride. Smooth trail with lots of benches and several picnic areas and toilet facilities. Well maintained. Passed through several little communities along the trail. No major highways and very few little roads to cross making it very safe. Got a delicious huge “medium” size ice cream cone at the “Big Twist” in Blythedale, right off the trail. Highly recommend this ride!
Went out today (6Sept26) on my recumbent trike and I went to the Connellsville trailhead by the Martins grocery. That is the old train station and is well set up with lots of parking, restrooms, and camp sites. I took the trail toward Ohiopyle and it was just peaceful as can be. A good many riders on the trail, but everyone was courteous. The trail is well maintained, although maybe a little narrow in spots. Try it out sometime for yourself. Enjoy!
We biked from mile 0 at the Trumbull/Ashtabula county line to Austinburg and back. Passed through Orwell and had lunch. Trail very well shaded and in good condition but a few root liftings in the asphalt but not a deal breaker. Enjoyed our stop in Austinburg but saddened to see that Shannon's mini mart is now closed since the owners retired after almost 20 years there.
A nice short break off of the armstrong trail
Started in Schenley where the bridge crosses the Kiski River. This is at mile 0. Begin at the newly refurbished bridge in 2024. The bridge doesn't connect to anything at this time. There is a "flyover" planned for future development. We biked North to Ford City. Crushed limestone in very good condition and grass mowed along side. We passed an environmental clean-up site from and old well between miles 4 & 5. There are mileage signs. Two miles South of Ford City you will cross the bridge over Rosston at Crooked Creek. This looks to be relatively new I couldn't find any info on when it opened. Approaching Ford City the trail becomes paved and there are plenty of picnic tables and benches along the trail. In Ford City there are flower gardens along the trail and restrooms. Also the former PPG site which closed in the early 1990's. Ford City offers plenty of places to eat and the place we chose was very trail friendly filling our water bottles for asking. There isn't much shade along this 13 mile section of the trail and no benches along the trail to stop and rest. (Until we got to Ford City). We also took the few mile trail from Schenley down to Leechburg. It follows the Kiski River and comes out behind the old steel mill.
We parked at Kirk Road and biked to the Mahoning/Trumbull County line and picked up the Niles Bikeway into Niles for additional miles. MetroParks Bikeway has been repaved within the past few years, surface good. Not a whole lot of shade though. There is a bike rental at the Kirk Road trailhead. Also sells bottled water. We headed towards Canfield on the trail in the opposite direction. Great trail!
We biked on this trail coming seamlessly off the Metro Parks trail. This trail begins at Countyline....the Mahoning and Trumbull County lines. Trail is asphalt paved in good condition. One busy road crossing just below Meander Reservoir. At the Niles trailhead the trail extends 2/10 of a mile over at least one bridge. Eventually it will connect with the Western Reserve Trail in Warren.
Group ride. We parked in Franklin and biked South to Sunnyslope for 12.5 miles and back. This is the best section of the trail since everything from Kennerdell tunnel and South is like a washboard. 3.25 miles South of Franklin there is a hillside erosion and caution tape, since April 2026. Follow along the trail and go through the grass.
We parked in Orwell and biked South to Bristolville and turned around. Then back to Orwell for lunch at the Mexican restaurant along the trail. Great food and service with outdoor seating. They will also fill your water bottles with water and ice. After lunch we headed North to Rock Spring. Total 36 miles round trip. This trail is virtually flat as well as straight. Most of it is very well shaded. Trail in very good paved condition though between Oakfield and Bristol a stretch about 1/10 of a mile with some kind of speed bumps every 20 feet. We are not sure what the purpose of that is, they are marked with paint. If you can just overlook that, the rest of the trail is super!
