Rode this trail yesterday, 8/29/26. Second visit to this trail. Kudos to the folks that were involved in the trail creation, and to those who maintain it. Totally paved, a variety of scenery, plenty of port-a-potties and benches, and just a fun, flat trail. Finish your day with a cold brew at Inn the Wilds with pizza! Life is good.
Cycled northern 6 miles and returned 6 miles to Pavilion at Little Valley..
North end wormed under downed tree across trail and over another tree.
Again no asphalt, grass not cut, no mile markers, no amenities going north
5 Star Needs to Be Removed Again No Asphalt

We tried all three trail heads. Tally Ho was washed out and impassable. Traveled up the road to the Red Bridge. Crossed the bridge and turned around and loaded our bikes back up. It was a single dirt lane with overgrown grass and wash out divets up and down the path. Didn’t even seem hikable let alone bikable. We ended at Westline. Road the trail for 3.2 miles and a large tree was across the trail and again, impassable. We turned around. The trail itself was “ok”. Some spots were pretty rough and we had to creep through to not be knocked off.
We went on a pleasant, mostly cloudy day in August. Went from mile 58 to 46 and back. This section is a very nice, mostly rural/woods trail. The surface (crushed limestone) is generally good; the trail is sometimes as wide as a car lane, sometimes narrows down considerably (mostly due to the edges are not in as good shape as the middle). It does cross roads in spots, but most are not busy. I'd say 70% of it is in the shade, with some sections in the sun (but most sun sections are not long, so this would be a good trail for a hot day). Kane has a surprisingly large downtown, with quite a few restaurants (the Table 105 restaurant is quite good). The scenery is not spectacular (no dramatic waterfalls or cliffs) but beautiful woods with lots of large trees and pleasant fields. It was not very crowded when we went.
We loved the trail for it being well maintained and for the asphalt however there are a few parts of the trail where the road must be shared with autos. It could use a little better signage for the mid point turn back/surrey direction intersection as well as where to go at the monument area.
Annual group ride! We go during the week to avoid large crowds. Paved and very flat trail has been newly repaved within the past few years. Always a great ride on this trail within the park. Plenty of other outdoor activities in the park as well.
Started at the end of 7 Mile road and went to Kane trail head this time. Last time went towards De Young. Both times the trail is nice and smooth, shaded most of the way, and very peaceful.
The trail is a nice walk and mostly in the shade. Great for walking but not for biking. There are a lot of tree roots. Great place to walk your dogs.
The approx 10 mile paved trail runs through Oil Creek State Park. A few short sections of the trail are beat up and rough but the other 99% of the pavement in good condition. Trail follows Oil Creek. Very well shaded for most of the 10 miles. We saw some bear scat and 2 deer wading in Oil Creek. The road bridge in Petroleum Center near the park office has been closed since 2022 and was due to open in 2026 but now the state is saying 2027 or 2028. Bridge open to pedestrians and cyclists. At the North end of the trail just outside of Titusville is the Queen City Trail which goes into Titusville. It's less than 2 miles in length and paved.
This ride has been on my "to do" list for a while. Yesterday I got up and looked at the weather and decided to make it happen. (I live in NY about 2 hours away). I knew I wanted to do this before Memorial Day as I am assuming it gets crowded in season.
I can honestly say this was the best ride I have had in a long time. The trail itself was well kept. People for the most part were respectful as far as sharing the trail with bikers, walkers, etc. I like that park speed limit is 25 miles for those sections of the trail where you either need to switch sides of the road or ride with the traffic.
The scenery was great as well. From seeing the boat houses, Perry Monument, the ferry dock, people riding surreys and out on the water fishing and kayaking. I even enjoyed a post-ride hotdog at Sara's to complete my day.
I had such an enjoyable and relaxing day, I cannot wait to go back.
Warmer weather has melted the snow. Mostly clear, with plenty of small tree detritus. Watch for 3 short stints (just a few yards each) of gravel at the north end. As usual, a bit of moss and plenty of root ridges - speed bumps ¿. Happy Trails.
