The Opportunity Corridor Trail is a trail that runs parallel to a boulevard called the Opportunity Corridor in Cleveland Ohio. It runs between I-490 and East 105th Street in Cleveland. Development of this boulevard and trail was designed to bring economic development and jobs to a depressed part of Cleveland, Ohio. The trail provides a transportation alternative to reach businesses along the corridor. One end of the trail starts in front of the Tudor Arms Hotel Cleveland located on Carnegie Ave. The trail turns at East 105th Street and follows East 105 until it changes to the afore mentioned Opportunity Corridor. The trail ends when it reaches the Cleveland Regional Transit Authority's East 55th Street Rapid Station where one can catch either a bus or a light rail train to reach other Cleveland locations.
When I rode this trail I parked by the Cleveland Museum of Art and rode the Harrison-Dillard Bikeway from the museum south until I reached Carnegie Avenue and then followed Carnegie Ave west for about 2/10ths of a mile until I reached the start of the trail in front of the Tudor Arms Hotel.
The Opportunity Corridor project opened in November of 2021 and the trail is still in very good shape. As with many urban trails there are places where you may find broken bottles and other items that may puncture tires so you do need to pay some attention to the trail surface. However, I did not find that debris was a major concern on my ride. There are a few major intersections along the corridor where one does need to pay attention to traffic/walk lights and traffic.
A previous reviewer of this trail said that they did not feel safe traveling through some of the neighborhoods along the trail. I did not experience the same anxiety. In fact I did not encounter anyone on the trail at all except from Carnegie Ave. to Cedar Ave. around the Cleveland Clinic medical campus.
While this trail is in fine shape, it is designed mainly as a commuter trail for local residents to get to work at businesses along the Opportunity Corridor. The trail will get more use when more businesses locate along the corridor. In addition, the Opportunity Corridor Trail gives residents in the depressed areas along the trail to reach museums located around Wade Oval in the University Circle neighborhood and also the Cleveland Cultural Gardens located along Martin Luther King Drive by connecting to the Harrison-Dillard Bikeway along Carnegie Avenue. This trail is probably most useful to those who live near it.
Smooth asphalt trail that mostly runs next to roadways, and connects to the Bedford Reservation trail to the west. No doubt it is hilly, but that also makes it challenging and fun. I often take it from Chagrin Falls to Bedford, where i can connect with the mostly flat Hike and Bike trail at Alexander Road, and then go into Summit and Portage counties. That allows me to ride a total of 65-70 miles (out and back). The only downside is that the trail crosses roads that can be busy, forcing you to wait.
Beautiful sunny but cold Winter Day to get out and enjoy the trail. A good 8" of snow covering the trail. We parked in the small lot out on Trout Island Road and walked to the end and back.
I went to the Alexander Rd trailhead on 10/25/25 planning to ride south over Brandywine Falls area, but the trail is completely blocked off with fencing and heavy equipment for an apparent repair. It was disappointing, but I rode north into the Bedford reservation instead for a hilly, beautiful ride. Just wanted everyone to be aware of the closure. There is no posting when it may be opening again.
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.
Though roughly 2.5ish miles in length, the trail is always enjoyable to be on. This time of the year it's not real buggy. Trail is paved and in decent condition. The posts at the end of the trail have recently been painted by a member of Mercer County Trails Association.
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.
The trail has been resurfaced and the section up to the Medina Career Center has been paved with asphalt. Trail is in excellent condition. Nice job Medina county!
