The trail path that you access from Academy Park is NOT a bike path…scenic? Sure! Bring your bike? Don’t waste your time…
This is my favorite and go-to bike trail in Columbus. Not too busy, numerous curves, varied scenery, numerous bridges, connects to Blacklick trail, goes by Easton and Franklin Park Conservatory areas, good mix of mostly shade and some open sun sections, it has a little bit of everything for a city bike trail that doesn't feel like you're in a big city.
Nice mix of rural, suburban and city riding. Wide asphalt and lots of leafy cover. Nice bike lane in Xenia and good ice cream in Spring Valley. However, there are dozens of road crossings both city and rural where cross traffic does not stop or yield. The street/ road crossings are also very rough and you'll be on the brakes often.
Not too bad for being down town Columbus. A few spots were we saw some homeless folks. But no one gave any troubles.
Really enjoyed this trail nice and shaded by trees and really peaceful. Everyone were very freindly.
This is a nice enough trail but it’s way too short. It’s kind of sad because it has so much potential. There’s a whole section at the end that’s completely unkept & unridable and it just ends up ending in someone’s driveway. If they could tie this trail into the round town trail then it would really be something special. While they’re at it… Why not extend it all the way down to the paint creek trail. That would be sweeet!
This is a nice enough trail but it’s way too short. I supplemented it by riding around in Circleville. If they could find a way to tie it in to the Pickaway trail, they would really have something special.
This is a fantastic trail with lots of various sites to see. It’s very well kept, and I loved all the big wooden Bridges along the route. It ties into other trails in the Columbus area so there is much to explore on it. This trail is only 40 minutes from my house so I know I will be riding it a lot. Highly recommended.
I rode thirty-three and three quarter miles on an out-and-back ride on the Blacklick Creek Greenway Trail. The trail does follow along Blacklick Creek and a couple of others along the way but you don’t see much of the creek due to thick vegetation. For the most part you travel through a mixture of trees and open fields. But most of the fields are left in a thick natural prairie state. I started in Three Creeks Metro Park in Groveport just southeast of Columbus, Ohio. Heading east you will be able to enter Pickerington Ponds Metro Park in Canal Winchester and if you travel north you can reach Blacklick Woods Metro Park in Reynoldsburg. The northernmost part of the trail ends as it circles the athletic fields in John F. Kennedy Park in Reynoldsburg. The trail connects to the Alum Creek Greenway Trail which is another Columbus area greenway trail. Simply travel west on the Blacklick Creek Greenway out of Three Creeks Metro Park and you will start on the Alum Creek Greenway as soon as you cross the bridge over Big Walnut Creek. The trail is in good shape with some tree root uplift in some spots. Portions of the trail in Blacklick Woods Metro Park are not paved and consist of hard packed crushed limestone. Much of the trail is quite scenic, but in some areas of Reynoldsburg the trail parallels roads that appear to be some of the city's busier traffic arteries. Despite this, this is definitely a trail to check out.
Trail is 23 miles in length and runs from Mt. Vernon in Knox County to mile 0 at the Knox / Delaware County line. Then continues for another 7.5 ish miles to Sunbury in Delaware County. New sections have been added along with several bridges. Plenty of shade on this trail along with open farmlands. Uphill for about the first 10 miles from Mt. Vernon towards Centerburg. But great on the return trip! We rode from Mt. Vernon to Sunbury and back for a 46 mile round trip on a beautiful Sunday in August, 2023.
I rode the trail today from Bowlusville to just north of Urbana. It was a sunny morning with temps in the upper 70s to low 80s. I parked at the Access Point at 580 West County Line Rd. which had a shelter and a port-a-pottty. Several other folks parked in the same lot, but it was never full. I rode the trail from Springfield to Bowlusville a couple of weeks ago.
The trail from Springfield to Urbana is paved and, for most of the distance, has a tree canopy to provide shade and block the wind. When I got north of Urbana it changed to chip seal and there was no tree cover. The surface was noticeably rougher but still tolerable with 28 mm tires at 60-70 psi. Between the chip seal and the sun, it's a different experience.
Two other notes for potential riders:
1. The trail seems a little shorter than the advertised 35.5 miles. The official description states that Bellefontaine to Urbana is 16 miles. Based on my rides, I'd say Urbana to Bowlusville is 7 miles and Bowlusville to Springfield is 9.5 miles. That's three miles shorter than the overall claimed distance. Maybe they included the 6-mile Buck Creek Trail in the claimed distance for the Simon Kenton Trail or maybe my numbers are off.
2. Going southbound into Springfield the connection to the Little Miami Trail is difficult to detect. If you recall to turn left at South Center Street at the end of the Simon Kenton Trail, you will make the connection, but there is no sign there if you don't remember. Going northbound from the Little Miami Trail, there is a sign that directs you to the left on South Center Street to make the connection with the Simon Kenton Trail.
