Took advantage of the unseasonably warm temps near 80 and went for a Halloween afternoon hike. Parked at New Hamburg mile marker 4 and went south 1.5 miles and turned around. Low water levels in the Shenango River, very dry conditions. Some fall colors still holding on. Trail is very well maintained.
Took us a month, but finished today hiking this trail. And just one day with rain. Still stunned by the beauty of this part od Pennsylvania.
Foxburg to Parker section of the trail, 2.5 miles in length, paved, good condition. Follows the Allegheny River. We went to enjoy the Fall Foliage. Beautiful! Made an afternoon out of it: Bike ride, visited the winery and ate at the pizza shop. There is a hotel in Foxburg and noticed several cars parked in front of it with bike racks.
My husband and I ride this trail about 3-4x/month starting in Freeport. We always stop at the Derailleur Cafe which has great food—the most delicious grilled cheese (add the various relishes—you won’t be sorry!), roasted veggies over rice (add chicken or beans for a healthy lunch), fresh fruit smoothies and Leona’s Ice Cream sandwiches. It’s a darling cafe with good history (ask Dee about it—she loves to talk:-)). It’s opened daily in the summer, but due to lack of traffic, Fall has only weekend hours…11-3.
The trail itself is a nice workout—about 10 miles up a very gradual incline after the first 5 miles of flat, then down another 5 miles to Butler (we always turn around before town). We turn around to get back to Freeport all within about 3.5 hours. (If my husband is alone, he cranks it out in about 2.5). The views are along Buffalo Creek, Jones’ turkey farm (hold your nose during the heat of summer), and a cow pasture.
It’s a great, well maintained trail that’s well shaded in the summer months.
Beautiful ride. Nice good trail. Lots of shade. Relaxing and fun. Highly recommend. Will do again.
ride trail on Oct. 3, 2024. went to end point at Conneaut Lake. miles 7&8 rough with gravel. last 4 miles on old RR bed of cinders, but fairly smooth. plenty of shade and lots of wetlands to view. Take water to drink. last miles thru Pa Game Lands. round trip from Beans trail head is 22 miles
The Meadville Connector which is at mile 0, Beans Trailhead, is now paved. It runs behind the bowling alley, Hoss', and comes out at the plaza (under the Smock Bridge) and continues to Kerrtown. Is one mile in length from Beans trailhead. Follows French Creek. This section has several small wooden bridges.
We are doing the trail now. It is beautiful with the colors changing. This trail is so well kept, with the surprise statues, just a joy to us and the dog.
What a beautiful trail and obviously loved and taken care of by the community. Smooth paving, beautiful scenery, gorgeous covered bridges and benches and washrooms along the way. What a gem! So glad we rode!
Would recommend to anyone. Make sure you check out the memorial for Marcy Suzette Nellis on the oil City end. Good idea to carry a firearm or a knife in case there are any Sickos like david bosley running around.
Well maintained and cool on hot days. Watch for signs to see the covered bridge and stream just off the trail. Plant off stopping points along the trail with picnic tables and benches. We ride this trail 2 to 3 times a week.
