We parked in Orwell and biked South to Bristolville and turned around. Then back to Orwell for lunch at the Mexican restaurant along the trail. Great food and service with outdoor seating. They will also fill your water bottles with water and ice. After lunch we headed North to Rock Spring. Total 36 miles round trip. This trail is virtually flat as well as straight. Most of it is very well shaded. Trail in very good paved condition though between Oakfield and Bristol a stretch about 1/10 of a mile with some kind of speed bumps every 20 feet. We are not sure what the purpose of that is, they are marked with paint. If you can just overlook that, the rest of the trail is super!
This "trail" is made up of many smaller trails and some of it is on roads. Do as much research on this as you can before your trip!
Hats off to Portage County for repaving last year and redoing the RR crossing near Ravenna. Whether it was the RR or the County you did a fantastic job on a hazardous crossing. Very nice trail. Hopefully it gets extended east
Always great to visit this trail and enjoy the Linesville Spillway, where the ducks walk on the fish! Trail is flat and paved and follows Pymatuning Lake withing Pymatuning State Park. The trail also goes by the Fish hatchery. Plenty of other park activities as well. The trail runs from Fries Road in Linesville to South Chestnut Street in Linesville but plans are in the making to continue the trail from South Chestnut to South Townville Road. Not a lot of shade on this trail, bring sunscreen. While in the area, just 10 minutes away is the Pymatuning Valley Greenway Trail. July, 2026.
Enjoyed our ride along this trail. Doesn't offer much shade but the scenery is fields of corn and other crops and working farms. We parked at the police station in Andover and biked to Leon Road and back, then zig-zagged through town (Andover) and biked the Southern section from Mill Street to Marvin Road. Out and back is approx 12-13 miles. Always a great ride along this trail which is less than 2 years old. While in the area, about 10 minutes away is the Spillway Trail in Linesville, PA. July, 2026.
We rode from Warren trailhead on the Southern end to North Bloomfield and back (about 28 miles round trip). It’s kind of a boring trail, mostly woods on each side with not many views. There are HORRENDOUS bumps on a stretch just north of Rt. 88. 17 huge “speed bumps” in a half mile stretch that are marked with red and yellow paint. Needs fixed badly. We will most likely not ride this section of the trail again. Will attempt the northern end from Orwell to see if it’s any better.
Parked at Swine Creek. Traveled up to Middlefield, where we picked up the trail. Went north to Chardon. Turned west down to Spinners Diner for lunch and biked back. On the way up, there was a small tree across the trail. By the time we got back, it was cleared. Hit two Amish Markets in Middlefield for some baked goods. After, we went south to Garrett’s Mill and Brewing in Garrettsville, OH for a pint. Great day trip!!
Location for parking says 136 E Bagley but should be 136 West Bagley.
Nice wide, and scenic trail. Park at the Spillway and feed the ducks when you get back.
Map is backwards. Plenty of parking at North end of trail. North section is about 3 miles, while the South is about 2 miles.
Rode the trail today (6/7/26) from Middlefield to Chardon. We saw 5 snapping turtles on the trail! Great day.
