Started at west creek trailhead down hill for the first 6 miles. Made for a long 6 miles on the way back. All and all nice trail, scenery not the greatest.
The trail is reasonably scenic. Some forest, many open spaces, farmland, homesteads, that kind of thing. My main problem with the trail from Leeper to Marianne is that the middle half (maybe a 6 mile portion?) is in pretty bad condition. Not smooth asphalt. Not sure what it is but it's very bumpy and crumbling in many places. For a road bike, it's annoying and took a great deal of pleasure out of the ride for me and my crew.
We tried to do this trail but could not find the start of the trail (Houtzdale end). There were multiple gravel roads/trails but no markings or designated parking lot. I have never been to a trail where the trailhead was not clearly marked.
Great trail, wife and I love to back back this trail. lots of great camp sights and water sources. Rocks are awesome and the vista view is really great first thing in the morning.
Nice scenic ride along the Clarion river and Toby creek
We needed to find a trail between State College and Saint Marys as we were meeting my wife’s folks halfway to drop off food and some supplies (the days of COVID-19)...and walla, Clearfield! The directions to the Clearfield terminus are a tad off...we drove right by it. It shows it near/beside a grocery store. It’s actually right before it and the signage doesn’t jump out at you. Once we found it, plenty of parking. The trail as you head west for the first mile or two is more practical than attractive...it happens in places where the rail went through industrial parts of a town. But once you leave Clearfield and heads towards Curwensville, it’s a beautiful ride...some gorgeous scenery...classic farmland and creeksides.
Nice workout trail, they have done a lot of work to it
Better for 4 wheelers than Mountian bikes, something different anyway
