We parked at Kirk Road and biked to the Mahoning/Trumbull County line and picked up the Niles Bikeway into Niles for additional miles. MetroParks Bikeway has been repaved within the past few years, surface good. Not a whole lot of shade though. There is a bike rental at the Kirk Road trailhead. Also sells bottled water. We headed towards Canfield on the trail in the opposite direction. Great trail!
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.
First time for riding the Conotton creek trail and we really liked it. The best place to park is on the Jewett end. Nice and flat, pavement in great shape and bathrooms long the way. We will definitely ride this trail again.
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.
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
This is a nice short trail that is flat and uncrowded, with nice views of farmland. It’s paved except for about a mile long road section that’s fresh, chunky gravel, chip and seal. I walked it with my thin tires, but wider tires would do just fine.
I parked in Wellsburg and rode through town first. Very unkempt and Unmarked. Bumpy and just all around super unenjoyable. Headed back the other direction. While nicer, admittedly, it was still pretty unkept. 2/10 for being lackluster. At best.
This trail is wider, better kept condition than adjacent Ohio to Erie trail, probably can be muddy during wet weather I enjoyed the ride, well marked!
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.
I love this trail! The elevation is constantly changing. Couple that with many curves and you have a challenging trail if you are someone who rides a bit faster than most. You will encounter steep downhills that end with a 90deg turn, or sometimes a horseshoe turn. I am 79 and find this a great trail on which to hone your skills. And yet you meet the most interesting people enjoying nature at its best. I saw a man on a unicycle just going to town on the curves. Then I saw a woman in her 90s slowly pushing a wheeled walker along. Bless her and her determination to carry on. Keep moving!
