Highly recommend this beautiful and well kept trail. Beautiful to ride along the trees and over the 2 epic ohiopyle bridges.
Parked and did the short ride toward Massillon. Turned around and went to the end, where the spoke goes off toward Dalton. Very pretty scenery! Middle of trail is crushed limestone. They were out sweeping the trail and also mowing. Great trail!
I’m a newer rider and decided to ride from Ira trailhead north to Boston Mills. It was about a 14 mile round trip, mostly flat ride. It was absolutely beautiful for a crisp, fall ride! There were some areas of congestion along the way, but most of the ride was quiet and relaxing. I look forward to trying other areas of the trail!
We rode the roughly 30 miles from Fredericksburg to Killbuck and back. Paved trail with some nice views and lots of shaded areas. It’s a shared trail with horse/buggies and there are a lot of Amish on E-bikes pulling carts but the path is very wide. My only complaints are the bumps in some areas and the need to constantly dodge horse manure.
The lower section below rock cut rd is now paved to Ellis Dam. There is also a section in town that goes by the river, it isn’t highlighted on the map, but the name is there if you zoom in.
Holmes County trail has recently been extended an extra 4 miles from the Glenmont trailhead. Killbuck trailhead is now approximately a 3 mile highway ride from the end of this new addition.
We were passing through the area and looking for a trail to ride for a couple of hours. The Brooke Pioneer trail was nice. For the mostpart away from roads with the Ohio River to the west. It merged into the Wheeling Heritage Trail seamlessly. IMO its not a destination trail but very nice for a 25 mile ride RT while in the area. We didn't do all of the Wheeling Heritage trail due to time limits but enjoyed what we did. (We raced a tugboat pushing a barge upstream and won!) (bragging rights - no prizes)
My wife was running a 5K in Moundsville, WV and we camped at Barckcamp State Park. On the way home to Akron we stopped and did the Conotton Trail. We did it about 10 years ago but didnt remember much. It was a delightful trail; good asphalt, pastoral country scenery, mostly shady.
We were pulling our 65lb dog in a trailer and we passed someone pulling a 108lb Rottweiler in a trailer (neither on ebikes) and enjoyed the interaction.
Recommend parking at Jewett. It's a large parking area and easy to find. (perfect since we had a trailer. Bowerstown has room for 1-2 cars at the trailhead.
It was a beautiful drive through the rolling hills of SE Ohio on a stunning late summer day with blue skies, warm temperatures and the fall colors starting to come out. It's a little out of the way but if you are passing by with your bikes and have a couple of hours its worth it. Or if you're staying in the area and are looking for a nice, easy bike path you won't be disappointed.
Rode out on Old Muskingum. He people, flat quiet, not too much to look at. then back on towpath but closed at Crystal Springs.
This trail is a hidden gem. Excellent ride to Lisbon today and back. 25 miles round trip give or take. I saw 9 deers and several brave squirrels darted around my tires. If you get a chance, ride this trail
I took the trail during the last week in August, starting at the west end. It was trashy under the first bridge just at the beginning, but otherwise the trail was fine. I didn't have any problem seeing the chain link fence.
Views of the Basket Building are best going west, especially when even with the white-roofed greenhouses. Longaberger Basket closed in 2018 and it is now empty.
I could not find the parking lot on the west end as mentioned when I was on the corner of E Main St and S Morris St. I ended up parking at the St Vincent De Paul Thrift Store with permission. If one is going to do the whole route, there is better and obvious parking about midway at Marne and Licking Valley Rd NE as mentioned by others. There is a bike fix-it station less than a minute's ride from that parking lot at the trail side of the church. This would be a good place for a port a pot, since there are no restrooms along the way. The east end doesn't have parking either where the trail just ends.
There are a couple fast food restaurants and a convenience store off the path a couple miles from the west end. Some are at the bottom of a hill, so keep in mind you have to go back up the hill to get on the trail again.
Overall a good trail for the area.
