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.
This map is not accurate. The Northern trailhead, with ample parking, is on Leon Road, near the intersection at 3596 Stanhope-Kelloggsville Road (Dorset, OH)41°39'13.0"N 80°36'46.8"W
Parked in Emlenton, 27 miles South of Franklin and headed North to just North of the Kennerdell Tunnel approx 13 miles South of Franklin. This section has two lengthy tunnels, need a light. Very well shaded with views of the Allegheny River. The trade off is that this section is super bumpy with uplifted asphalt pavement due to tree roots. You'll ride along and then all of a sudden hit a series of roots which catch you off guard as they are not marked and difficult to see. Some stretches it's uplifted asphalt one after another. We usually ride this section once per year and since last year it's gotten progressively worse. Other than the washboard areas, this is a good trail. Once a year is enough.
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)🍺🍻🍻😎
This short trail connects to other trails to make a loop from the Ohio and Erie trail. I started at Bacci park, north east to Garfield park, west on Morgana run. Then to this trail to Ohio and Erie connector. About a 18 mile loop.
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
