We did the entire paved path including the little extension near Meadville. Very nice!
We travel almost 2 hours to get to this trail and worth the drive. One of Ohio's nicest trails. Asphalt paved in very good condition, pretty scenery, well maintained by Geauga County Parks, numerous benches along the route, grass cut, trash cans emptied and nice restrooms. There are 5 covered bridges along the trail. Most of the trail is full sun so make sure you slather up with sunscreen on a sunny day. We parked at Headwaters Park and biked up to Chardon for lunch and back. Then biked down to Middlefield. Total miles 30 round trip. Was sad to see the fountain at the Middlefield end of the trail was not working and the trellis removed and no hanging flower baskets.
We biked on this trail coming seamlessly off the Metro Parks trail. This trail begins at Countyline....the Mahoning and Trumbull County lines. Trail is asphalt paved in good condition. One busy road crossing just below Meander Reservoir. At the Niles trailhead the trail extends 2/10 of a mile over at least one bridge. Eventually it will connect with the Western Reserve Trail in Warren.
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!
Nice community trail that links to a beautiful park for kids. Nice ride if you’re in the neighborhood.
Trail is opened there are no closures at the utility pipeline construction site. Mile marker 2. All clear! July, 2026.
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
Before the Canadian wildfire smoke got worse, we ventured out for a morning ride. Air quality bad but not "as bad" as it got. Hazy skies and the slight smell of burned plastic. The well shaded trail filtered out a lot of it. Trail closure at the 2 mile mark. 1 mile from the Beans trailhead. They have been working on a pipeline near the trail which you could see from the trail and the trail had been open. But now they are working under the trail and there is no way to get around the construction so it's fenced off. Not sure how long they will be working in that spot. In the meantime the remainder of the trail is open.
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.
