Pretty good for a trail that goes through a completely built-up suburban area. Flat and well-paved along its entire length. The prettiest part is along the shore of Lake Isaac nearly the southern end. Connects to Lake to Lake Trail at Lake Isaac. I recommend doing the 2 trails together. The numerous road crossings are annoying, but the major ones have pedestrian traffic lights, so they are safe.
Started in Akron and went downhill along the trail through the national park and just had a wonderful time. We also enjoyed riding the train back for just $5!
Nice trail. Crosses 20+roads.
We were in town for the Cleveland Kite Festival and decided to knock out a ride on the Towpath Trail inside Cuyahoga Valley National Park. The northern trail head at Rockside Station was less than 10 miles from Edgewater Park downtown and easily accessible by car (41.392790, -81.628648 Independence, Ohio Lock #39). We had ridden southern sections of this long trail and this was no different - smooth and hard packed crushed limestone. Lots of trail traffic on a Sunday afternoon, but pedestrians and cyclists co-exist. Would like to return to take advantage of the Bike Aboard program.
The Coshocton Three Rivers Bikeway is basically a recreational trail that is made up of a series of loops in Coshocton, Ohio's Lake Park. There are two spurs off of the loops that take you into Coshocton and into Roscoe Village. There are lots of recreational amenities in this park — baseball, softball, and soccer fields; picnic areas, playgrounds, camping, fishing, and a pool with a water park. There are a couple of spurs off of these trail loops that connect to the city of Coshocton and also to historic Roscoe Village. Roscoe Village is sort of an Ohio Colonial Williamsburg. Its purpose is to recreate the atmosphere of an 19th century canal town. There is also the Monticello III, a canal boat that offers horse drawn canal boat rides on a small restored part of the Ohio and Erie Canal that once ran through here.
The trail is paved and is in okay shape. However, if your intention is to ride this trail, it probably is best to ride this trail early in the day as there are lots of spectators of kids athletics that are walking or standing on portions of the the trail near the athletic fields in the evenings. It is sometimes difficult to get through sections of the trail, particularly when young children are walking near and with their parents. Don’t expect to develop any speed on this trail because of this. Maybe this trail is best left to those who are utilizing the park for other reasons.
If you are a history buff then by all means give this park and the trail a visit. The canal basins, canal locks, the actual towpath, the aqueduct over the Walhonding River, the Monticello III canal boat rides, and Roscoe Village would make it worth a visit.
This has to be one of my favorite trails around, since they finished the lower, repaved it by Leetonia is is wonderful, I also rode the Washingtonville part today which I had never done before, that was a hidden gem!
I biked this a few years ago for my birthday. We started in Peninsula, Ohio and took the train up about fourteen miles up the Cuyahoga River to Rockside Station and biked back to Peninsula. It was probably one of my favorite birthdays I can remember. They even had beer on the train. What a delight. Along the way we stopped at the Canal Exploration Center, had Ice cream at Trail Mix in Boston, peaked in the Boston Visitors Center, and watched the Steelers game at Winking Lizard Tavern. It was a great little adventure. There's so much to do and see in Cuyahoga National Park. I strongly recommend Hale Farm and Village.
We frequent this trail a few times a year traveling about an hour to get here. Worth the trip.
Parked at the Sunside Trailhead on 305 and biked through Trumbull County to the Ashtabula County line. We continued into Ashtabula County a few miles to Orwell. Then biked back. Approx round trip 27 miles.
Trail has some areas of new pavement (2018) and goes through open farmland areas, offering full sun, and closed wooded areas shaded by trees.
Trail is virtually flat though at times you may notice slight grades.
I've ridden this trail several times. This was the first time I've been able to go to end to end without some kind of obstruction or construction. It's a relaxing trail, but if you go on a road bike - ride with caution on the Ohio portion. It will absolutely blow out a tire if you're not paying attention.
My wife and I live in Streetsboro and have been looking for a paved trail where we can get more than 20 miles of riding. This is just what we asked for! Kudos to the Western Reserve Greenway maintenance teams! LOVE the tire pump and bike tools available at the Sunside trailhead. We rode 40 miles on Saturday 8/10 on our hybrids, and had such a great time that we came back Sunday 8/11 with our road bikes for another 40 miler. Will definitely be adding mileage to our "bike date".
This is a very pleasant trail. Most of it is wooded and shaded. Crushed limestone path in very good condition. Passes through some state nature preserve areas. Generally flat grade throughout. There's a restroom roughly halfway between Mantua and Garretsville. Nice change of pace from busier places like the towpath.
