The Portage River Trail is a short trail running through the village of Pemberville located in northwest Ohio’s Wood County. It is built upon an old Toledo & Central Ohio Railroad right-of-way that ran between Stoney Ridge and Fostoria, Ohio.
The trail has a dirt/cinder surface and runs between Rees Rd/W. College Avenue and Alexander Road in Pemberville. Highlights along the trail include Pemberville Station and a bridge over the North Branch of the Portage River. Both of these rail remnants are in good condition and might be of interest to train aficionados, but considering the length and surface of this trail, it is definitely not one that I can recommend to anyone outside the immediate vicinity of Pemberville. I view this trail as primarily meant to be a walking trail for the village’s residents. Unless this trail would be extended northwest 6.75 miles to Stoney Ridge, OH or 15.5 miles south to just outside Fostoria, OH I think there is little reason to seek out this trail.
The Slippery Elm Trail is a flat, well-maintained trail found running through farmland in northwest Ohio. It runs 13 miles between the towns of Bowling Green and North Baltimore. The trailheads in both towns have nice trailheads with flush bathrooms, drinking water, and bike repair stations. Near the midpoint of the trail the village of Rudolph offers port-a-johns. The trail is wide and the asphalt surface is smooth. Where cracks have appeared they have been filled. Depending upon the time of year you ride the trail there may not be a lot to see. The parts of the trail that are shaded have lots of brush between the trees which make the trail seem like a green tunnel. Likewise, the parts of the trail running through corn fields also block seeing much of the surrounding countryside. Since much of the trail running through farmland is not shaded, using sunscreen would be a wise idea. In addition, I would suggest to make sure you carry a cell phone. I found the trail to feel somewhat isolated. On the weekday that I rode an out-and-back ride of the entire trail I did not encounter a single other person using the trail. If you have a crash or an emergency occur while on the trail, I don’t think you can rely on someone coming by to assist you.
We are staying at Sterling Park Campground and took the trail to River Raisin Battlefield. We absolutely loved it. The trail has been recently resurfaced, wide in most areas, along wetlands and just a wonderful ride. We almost considered going somewhere else due to the reviews, but so glad we didn’t. We’re going to explore more here but if you get a chance to ride this, DO IT! So refreshing!
Nice and smooth. Nearly and surprisingly empty on Memorial Day. Great paved trail. River views. A super nice trail.
A new section has been completed that fills the former gap between Dexter-Huron Metropark to Delhi Metropark on the Huron River.
The first 15ish miles are paved and then almost EVERYTHING after that is stone and mud and dirt and you are in the middle of nowhere. Now, I could have done more research but I was not prepared to have to cut through random properties and factories to continue the trail. We had to cross a live railroad just to stay on track. The majority of the view is just cornfield. There are also not many places to stop for food or bathrooms or anything. You cut through wauseon, which has some places, but other than that there isn’t a lot. Anyways- I’m traumatized!
It's sunny, wide and open, a good round trip, and has a great view of Lake Erie. The northern portion by Carlson High School is pretty rough but evens out quickly.
First 2 miles from the north to the south are very bad! Water puddles and torn up asphalt. My wife had an accident when she was forced into the thicket. Do not recommend riding bike here. Never going back.!!
