Great Trail

November, 2020 by clevelandrocks41

It is a great trail firstly. A dangerous crossing , caused by a hill is on turner S. Turner Rd.? It could be safer by warning motorists the path is there? In my humble opinion. Maybe solar lights? Thank you for your time.

Sandy Creek Trail

Fall Ride

November, 2020 by vicki1960

Nice warm Fall day 2020. We parked at Rockland and biked to Fisherman Cove and back and also some out towards Van. Trail has been cleared of the leaves. Trail is paved in good condition. Always enjoy riding this trail.

Western Reserve Greenway

Ashtabula County end to end ride, 53 miles Round Trip

November, 2020 by vicki1960

Rode the entire length of the trail through Ashtabula County to the Trumbull County line. Parked at mile 2 in Orwell and biked 24 miles up to Ashtabula and back and then down to the Ashtabula/Trumbull County line.
Trail is in very good paved condition and cleared of leaves.
Ate lunch at a Mexican restaurant steps away from the trail in Orwell. They are biker friendly. Even offer outdoor seating if you want to keep and eye on your bike.

Shenango Trail

Fall hiking 11/14-21/2020

November, 2020 by joseph_torok

Hiking during the recent week required the removal of many small trees either by handsaw work or simply moving to the side. Several trees on the Kidd's Mill section of the trail required chainsaw work late In the week. As of 11/21; trail all clear of tree obstructions the entire length.

Allegheny River Trail

Early November Ride-Trail is cleared of leaves

November, 2020 by vicki1960

Biked 30 miles early November. From Franklin to 12 miles South and back then up a few miles on the Samuel Justus Trail.
The trails association, AVTA, have cleared the leaves from the trail. They spent a good deal of time on cleaning up the fallen leaves and cleared the trail nicely.
Unseasonal warm temps and was able to get out and enjoy the trail.

Fall Ride

November, 2020 by vicki1960

We had a very warm Fall and it was great to get out and enjoy a fall ride. Biked from Countyline (Trumbull and Mahoning Counties) to Western Reserve in Canfield and back for a 25 mile round trip. Nice trail. The newly constructed tunnel under the OH turnpike is open. It's very nicely lit as well.

Samuel Justus Recreation Trail

Nice connection from the Allegheny River Trail

November, 2020 by vicki1960

After biking on the connected Allegheny River Trail, biked this one from Franklin to Oil City and back. 15 mile round trip.

Allegheny River Trail

60k for my 60th Birthday

November, 2020 by vicki1960

Did a 60k ride (40 miles). Dreary and cool fall day with sections of the trail covered in thick and heavy wet leaves. But overall, and as always, a great ride. Biked from Franklin to below Brandon and back then up to Oil City and back on the connecting Justus Trail.

Shenango Trail

Kidd's Mill/Shenango Trail Hike 10/31/2020

November, 2020 by joseph_torok

Began hike at Kidd's Mill intending to hike to the beaver dam at mile 5.5. Perfect hiking weather about 52°. Trail in good shape despite recent rains; clear of any obstructions. Puncheon bridge wetlands at mile 1.25 living up to reputation; but dry feet! Lots of squirrels sighted and deer tracks! Beef cattle at farm bordering trail very interested in our passing. Total mileage out and back 6 miles.

John C. Oliver Multi-Purpose Loop Trail

End of October ride

November, 2020 by vicki1960

Got out there the end of October to enjoy what's left of the Fall foliage. This trail never disappoints.

Maple Highlands Trail

Dedicated trail now goes through Chardon. Looks like it opened very recently. A great addition to an all-around terrific trail. Among the best ib NE Ohio.

Headwaters Trail

Nice trail

October, 2020 by bpatch

Very nice trail. 15 miles round trip. We started in Garrettsville and rode toward Mantua. Beautiful, especially in the fall with all the leaves falling. The trail is primarily flat; however, there is the slightest uphill grade going toward Mantua. Parking easy to find and both towns at each end of trail are very quaint. I would definitely recommend this trail to all levels of bike riders, along with families with small kids.
