Enjoyable Fall foliage bike ride through the park. Started in Petroleum Centre and pedaled up to Jersey Bridge. From there we connected to the Queen City Trail and also visited Drake Well, the site of the first oil well in 1859. This trail is paved in very good condition with a few rough spots. Follows Oil Creek, water levels very low and some areas of the creek are just all rocks. Park office is closed weekends (it's off season) but there are composting restrooms across the road. Up at the Jersey Bridge end is a plastic restroom, seasonal.
Enjoyed another very nice ride on this trail. Though the entire length is nearly 12 miles long, the section to the East of Route 19 is paved and very nice. We get in some good miles by going back and forth. Leaves are only beginning to change, early October.
This trail is not scenic for most of the trail. The trail is hard to follow and I had to refer to maps several times. The trail is all paved but there is a considerable amount of debris on it from the adjacent highway. The trail should continue to Presqu Trail but falls short Severl busy intersections to cross and not the best area to travel in the afternoon as there were several unsavory person panhandling, moving scarp, and unchained dogs running.
Went from Nth River Road to Orwell. Ate at the Homestead Diner just east of the trail on Route 322. Amish Cooking. Excellent. Have a slice of the pumpkin pie. The bridge is no longer out.
7 September 2025 - rode north from the North River Road trailhead for 10 miles then back. This is an excellent trail, relatively flat and well maintained. The surface is asphalt and smooth. There are a few road crossing but the roads are not busy. There were not many people on the trail even though this was a nearly perfect day for biking. This trail could be described as a destination trail, well worth a one or two hour drive.
This map is not accurate. The Northern trailhead, with ample parking, is on Leon Road, near the intersection at 3596 Stanhope-Kelloggsville Road (Dorset, OH)41°39'13.0"N 80°36'46.8"W
Participated in Mercer County Trails Associations annual Pedal the Lakes organized bike ride. The trail is super shaded and even thicker foliage than over the Summer. End of Summer ride showing slight signs of upcoming Autumn. It was a beautiful day at the park, Maurice K. Goddard State Park. The trail offers some great views of Lake Wilhelm as well as rolling Pennsylvania terrain.
Labor Day weekend, Sunside (Route 305 in Champion) to Orwell at Route 322 and back. 35 mile round trip. Beautiful day on the trail. Plenty of shade. Most of this section is wooded with a few working farms along the way. Trail is paved and there are some bumpy sections. We enjoyed our ride on this Holiday weekend.
Beautiful weather up on the Peninsula though somewhat breezy. Enjoyed the day at the park, got in a nice ride and went to Saras located at the entrance of the park for ice cream. The trail has been resurfaced within the past 2 years so if it's been a while since you've been there, time to revisit.
We biked the entire length of the trail and it's various surfaces. Meadville end is paved and well shaded. On the western side of Route 19 it's gravel for a few miles, very rough. Traveling further West towards Conneaut Lake it's dirt and bumpy and seems to have gotten worse since we last rode on this section. Will stick to it on foot or snowshoeing in the Winter. Pretty scenery though and a good bit shaded. We ate at Silver Shores in Conneaut Lake across the street from the trail. At the Conneaut Lake trailhead, just behind Conneaut Wine Cellars, there is a new pavlion which is very nice.
