Western Reserve Greenway

Sunside to Orwell

September, 2025 by vicki1960

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.

Allegheny River Trail

Scenic and well maintained!

August, 2025 by joekr160

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)🍺🍻🍻😎

Maple Highlands Trail

Wow! Great trail.

August, 2025 by brentandlynn

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.

Ernst Trail

Western end @ Conneuat Lake is rough

August, 2025 by vicki1960

We biked the entire length of the trail and it's various surfaces. Meadville end is paved and well shaded. On the western side of Route 19 it's gravel for a few miles, very rough. Traveling further West towards Conneaut Lake it's dirt and bumpy and seems to have gotten worse since we last rode on this section. Will stick to it on foot or snowshoeing in the Winter. Pretty scenery though and a good bit shaded. We ate at Silver Shores in Conneaut Lake across the street from the trail. At the Conneaut Lake trailhead, just behind Conneaut Wine Cellars, there is a new pavlion which is very nice.

Shenango Trail

Summer Hike

August, 2025 by vicki1960

After weeks and weeks of record breaking temperatures, finally a break and a cooler day to head to the Shenango Trail. Very well shaded but a bit buggy being along the river. Still a great day for a hike and to spend time in the woods. After June flooding, and now a draught almost, the water level very low and muddy.

Little Beaver Creek Greenway Trail

A biking favorite!

August, 2025 by khswy7bn2p

Nice, well maintained, and a variety of uses. We bike, but we have seen skaters, bikers, joggers, walkers, wagons, and strollers. The little covered bridge is a nice stop in Teegarden. Nice mix of shade and sun. Definitely recommend

Iron Horse Trail (Stark County)

Scenery: turtles, deer, chipmunks, birds, foliage

August, 2025 by khswy7bn2p

Nice trail close to home for us. On nice days we bike the trail to town, ending near water tower, stop and get a bite to eat and ride back to Cenfield. Pleasant and always see wildlife.

Samuel Justus Recreation Trail

Enjoyable Ride

August, 2025 by vicki1960

We accessed this trail in Franklin where the Allegheny River Trail ends. Seamless connection offers an additional 7 miles from Franklin to Oil City. Flat rail trail, paved, follows the Allegheny River. Historic signs and sights along the way. A little bit of shaded areas.

Mahoning Valley Trail

Rough areas this year.

August, 2025 by khswy7bn2p

We have been riding this trail for 3 years. Use caution on several hills and curves. It appears as if storms or runoff have caused some ruts that were “filled” with very large gravel making bike control harder. For walking, it would be okay.

Headwaters Trail

peaceful and quiet

August, 2025 by davidmaggiehome

The park on the east end has been repaved and can add a mile to your ride. You can add another mile at the park In Mantua The trail is in good condition just slight erosion off one area, there are some bumps from the asphalt to the dirt as you pass some roads, Most mile markers are not legible but no biggie! Very shaded in summer and fall colors could be spectacular

Little Beaver Creek Greenway Trail

Best trail in Columbiana County.

August, 2025 by tswilliammee

Nice, well maintained trail. The section from Lisbon to Teegarden is especially beautiful, although there is a bushier section that is on road, albeit a less traveled back road. A short detour at Teegarden will take you to a covered bridge.
