7 September 2025 - rode north from the North River Road trailhead for 10 miles then back. This is an excellent trail, relatively flat and well maintained. The surface is asphalt and smooth. There are a few road crossing but the roads are not busy. There were not many people on the trail even though this was a nearly perfect day for biking. This trail could be described as a destination trail, well worth a one or two hour drive.
Rode out on Old Muskingum. He people, flat quiet, not too much to look at. then back on towpath but closed at Crystal Springs.
Participated in Mercer County Trails Associations annual Pedal the Lakes organized bike ride. The trail is super shaded and even thicker foliage than over the Summer. End of Summer ride showing slight signs of upcoming Autumn. It was a beautiful day at the park, Maurice K. Goddard State Park. The trail offers some great views of Lake Wilhelm as well as rolling Pennsylvania terrain.
This trail is a hidden gem. Excellent ride to Lisbon today and back. 25 miles round trip give or take. I saw 9 deers and several brave squirrels darted around my tires. If you get a chance, ride this trail
Labor Day weekend, Sunside (Route 305 in Champion) to Orwell at Route 322 and back. 35 mile round trip. Beautiful day on the trail. Plenty of shade. Most of this section is wooded with a few working farms along the way. Trail is paved and there are some bumpy sections. We enjoyed our ride on this Holiday weekend.
Rode from the Franklin trailhead off of route 322 to the Kennerdell Tunnel and a bit beyond. The majority of the trail was paved and smooth. The gravel section just North of Kennerdell was challenging for my wife and the couple riding with us, (Skinny tires) Otherwise a scenic and fun adventure! (A 5 Beer Rating)🍺🍻🍻😎
Overgrown vegetation, trail has many bumps, west end of trail is detoured by freeway 77. Not a safe area either. Would be nice if the maintained this as it is a connector trail to Garfield and Washington trails that go to Ohio and Erie trail
Summer 2025 the rooty section of this trail has been repaved. It's very nice and smooth at approx mile markers 2-4. Though the about 1st mile still has a section of large cracks, it's definitely getting better! It was a cooler and cloudy day so we didn't notice too much this trail doesn't have a lot of shade. It actually rained a little during our ride though it was not in the forecast. Northern end connects with Niles Greenway. Southern end is in Canfield, across from the Canfield fairgrounds. An all around great trail, paved and approx 11 miles in length.
Been awhile since I rode this trail. Started at Ernie’s in Massillon and rode into Dalton. The trail has a noticeable incline going from East to West and the wind is typically from West to East. The 10+ bridges are in good shape. The trail has had some improvements but around the 3 mile mark after riding new asphalt the section of about 3/4 is somewhat bumpy The scenery is nice and both ends of trail have stopping places to eat
We are traveling and today was the only day we had to ride the trail. We entered at the Rockside Station and rode south. About 4 miles in, it started to rain off and on. We were sad because the forecast said 0% chance. Rode on for another few miles. By this time my husband's back was covered in mud from the wet trail and he was chilly, so we turned around and headed back. Total miles ridden was 17, so we only got a small portion but we loved it. So beautiful with yellow wildflowers all around. Informative historical signs tell you about the Erie Canal and life on the canal. Neat. I wish we could have ridden the train and then biked back, but we found out it doesn't run on Monday and Tuesday, and guess when we were here, yup Monday and Tuesday. If we are ever back in the area we would definitely ride it again!
We rode this trail for the first time today. Started at the Tare Creek trailhead and rode north. Beautiful covered bridges along the way add to the scenic beauty. Most of the trail was easy riding. At the north side of Chardon is a hill we hadn’t expected. Stopped at the ballpark in Chardon where there is a nice historic display about the railroad in Chardon. We didn’t make the trail end-to-end, but did end up with 29.5 miles.
