October, 2026. The trail connector between Garrett Wonders Trail South Warren and Niles is open as of 10-9-26. 2 new bridges at the Niles end of the trail. Follow the signs through streets of Niles and the trail begins at Warren Avenue and goes for a few miles zig zagging around the Kimberly Clark property. Then connects at Burton Street to the Garrett Wonders Trail. This is a great new connection to the trail!
October, 2026. We were pleasantly surprised to see fall foliage! This trail is tree lined but doesn't offer a lot of shade in the Summer, so we were in awe at the beautiful Fall colors of the trees. Definitely a nice surprise. Last month the first few miles from Countyline to New Road were repaved. Last year a few miles were repaved as well. There are now no bumps and cracks. Benches for resting along the trail, several parking lots and trash cans at the trailheads. Well maintained and cared for. While in the area we also bicycled Niles Greenway and the Western Reserve Trail out of Niles. Two connecting trails also well maintained.
October, 2026. Biked this trail between Western Reserve Greenway Trails. The new section from Niles and to the Warren section of Western Reserve. Garrett Wonders is a few miles in length. Asphalt paved in fair condition. Trail was littered with trash along the route and some sections had more trash than others, like literally a whole trashbag strewn vs a view pieces of trash here and there. Some vandalism as far as spray paint on the bridge and signs. The intersections had glass in them and on Burton Street a lot of glass, metal and other debris. So be careful for the sake of your tires!
October, 2026. We walked on this trail at the Kinzua Bridge State Park end of the trail. Beautiful fall foliage. Surface is crushed limestone in very good condition as it's only a few years old.
October 9, 2026: Though this trail is nearly 30 miles in length, about half of the miles are rideable and the Southern half is one bump after another. It's like a washboard. We've been biking this trail 12+ years and the last 6 years or so we've noticed a steady increase in roots uplifting the asphalt pavement to the point we ask ourselves "why are we doing this" during the ride. Bump after bump and now with fallen leaves on the trail, it's difficult to see the bumps. We parked at the Rockland tunnel North portal and biked to South Kent. We enjoy the few miles of smooth pavement through the St. George area. The tunnels are a "neat" attraction but you have to take the bumps as a trade-off. This is a trail which goes through some isolated areas, and there seems to be some vandalism to the signs along the trail. With this being one of the closest trails to us, we seem to only ride the Southern end once, maybe twice a year. And with the price of gas at practically $5 a gallon, it's still worth it to travel distances for better trail conditions elsewhere. Getting back to this trail is 30 miles in length, the first 12 miles or so traveling South out of Franklin, are in much better riding condition.
My wife and I decided to ride from the south up the Allegheny Trail. We wanted to experience the tunnel. As we rode to the tunnel we experienced some very rough tree root damaged trail sections. Some of them so tall that if you were going a t a high rate of speed, you possibly could be thrown off your bike. My hope is that this could be fixed because we love the scenery and riding along the Allegheny River was beautiful.
This was a nice 27.5 mile ride along the Allegheny River. The section that reverses N Kent road through the small subdivision of homes makes it interesting. Unchanging terrain becomes boring after a while. We enjoyed the historical markers which provide a better understanding of the area. It is a shame vandals live amongst us and are driven to destroy things like Indian God Rock. The northern section is very nice. The section south of the Woodland tunnel is a bit bumpy, but still better than other trails out there. The southern section could stand a little trimming of bushes etc. Toilets at both ends were atrocious.
This trail is a work in progress and coming along nicely. We've ridden different sections over the years. Surfaces vary. October, 2026 we started on the connecting Rail 66 Country Trail, mile marker 13 in Farmington Township, Leeper. Cycled to the Forest County line at mile marker 20 and seamlessly connected to the Knox & Kane Rail trail. We pedaled North to Marienville at mile marker 26. Still all on asphalt pavement. The pavement continued North of Marienville to mile marker 27.5. This is measuring the distance back to Shippenville. There the trail seemed to end and turn to dirt. New sign in Marienville at the restored train station and large gravel parking lot. Restrooms in Marienville but they were locked. Beautiful mural in Marienville. Signs of fall colors but too early in the month, should be beautiful as the month goes on!
October, 2026. This is one of Pennsylvania's best trails! At just over 20 miles in length, runs from Marianne to the Forest County line and seamlessly connects with the Knox & Kane Rail Trail for more miles. Rail 66 Country Trail is approx 7 years old, paved and in very good condition. Well maintained by awesome volunteers. Several trailheads along the way. Mostly shaded and some open farmlands. Food near the Marianne trailhead on 322, and at mile markers 12-13 in Leeper. Sporadic portable job site restrooms along the way but nothing brick and mortar. We parked in Farmington at mile marker 13 and biked to the county line at mile marker 20 then picked up the Knox & Kane Rail Trail to Marienville. Some fall foliage already. During peak season, this trail offers beautiful colors of Fall since there are many species of trees along the trail.
Love using this trail when I wan to ride from Youngstown to Warren. So peaceful, quiet and safe to use.
One of the most cleanest and excellent trails that I've rode so far since riding bike again.
