Panhandle Trail

Nice ride

July, 2025 by bobgwinn11

Very nice trail. Asphalt in great condition, except from Mc Donald to Falls Mills which was decent crushed limestone. Grades were very gentle, all1% or less. On a Monday we passed someone running or biking every 5-10 min. Overall a great experience

Sandy Creek Trail (PA)

Summer Ride

July, 2025 by vicki1960

Parked at Belmar and biked down (literally) to Fishermans Cove and back then up to Van and returned back at Belmar. Trail is mostly shaded. Several wooded bridges along the trail crossing Sandy Creek, they seem to be showing their age with some loose boards. Mays Mill tunnel short, do not need a light. Coasting back from Van is a breeze! Sandy Creek and Allegheny River water levels low. Saw one doe and fawn.

Allegheny River Trail

Franklin to Sunnyslope and back

July, 2025 by vicki1960

River flowing good since recent rains. Biked from Franklin to Sunnyslope and back, 12.5 miles each way for a 25 mile round trip. Not much shade.

Little Beaver Creek Greenway Trail

good choice for hot day

July, 2025 by dianefarmstronger

Aside from there not being a place to grab a bite close by in Washingtonville (ended up at Fat Ted’s which closes at 2) this was a good choice for a high 80s day. Lots of shade and beautiful. Could use better trail markings in Leetonia where we needed help finding the trail.

Trout Island Trail

A lot of mosquitoes and gnats.

July, 2025 by rsbrocklehurst

We went for a quick family ride with grandkids last night. The trail had a large amount of tall grass on it that had mowed onto the path. The bugs were bad.

Stavich Bicycle Trail

Decent trail in PA. Ohio needs some work. They are replacing the section in lowellville

Knox & Kane Rail Trail

Knox Kane Trail

July, 2025 by carebare552

Started at Kane. The trail was unmaintained after mile 4.7. I then went to the Kinzua bridge state park and rode to 219. A nice trail

Armstrong Trails

Trail closed north of Templeton

July, 2025 by tedb

Surprised to find the closure over the Mahoning Creek just north of Templeton. Looks like it has been that way for a while despite a recent review not mentioning it. No detour posted.

Great Allegheny Passage

Riding on this was a bucket list trail. Had hoped to ride further on it but had time restraints. Great trail. The rest stop in Meyersdale is wonderful. Plan someday to return and ride more of it.

Allegheny River Trail

Franklin to Brandon

June, 2025 by wendym0605

Beautiful ride into Brandon and back. Path is paved and maintained.

Ghost Town Trail

Finally did the trail...not overly impressed

June, 2025 by zap26

The trail was ok. My goal was to do the full trail 32 miles out and 32 miles back (Blacklick to Ebansburg), however the incline heading east was more than I could take on a very hot day so I turned around at mile 22. There were a lot of signage explaining towns that were once in a location. I think I pictured in my mind these abondoned towns were there were at least foundations left or something. It got boring after a while. Glad I did it, don't need to do it again.
