Detours on road but not busy as is in the country. Love the flat paved trail 10/10
We try to get to this one every year commuting nearly 3 hours and staying in the area. Flat paved trail runs from Danville to Mount Vernon. Crosses the Kokosing river several times over historic railroad bridges, goes through Kenyan College at Gambier and passes through the old stone arch in Howard. Mostly shaded with some open farmlands. We saw a few deer. Connecting trails are Heart of Ohio in Mt. Vernon and Mohican Valley in Danville. All around great trail!
We cycled the trail in its entirety located in Wayne & Stark Counties. Trail is mostly wooded providing a good bit of shade and also scenery of open fields/farmlands. Surface switches between crushed limestone to asphalt pavement. Some of the limestone was loose and other areas down to the dirt. Trail has many short bridges along it's 10 mile length. Very clean trail, zero trash and grass was cut. Dalton end of the trail you take streets into town. Massillon end is under a bridge. We ate a place near the trail on Bison Street which had sandwiches and cold drinks. Clean establishment with friendly service as well.
Great new connection to Portage Hike & Bike Trail. We parked at the new trailhead on Middlebury and biked West to Lions Park and back. Most of the trail is shaded. We went the other direction out of the parking lot and took the newly installed pedestrian/bike bridge and used the switchbacks down to the Portage Hike & Bike trail into Kent. Great trail, the bridge is awesome!
The north end now connects to the Portage Bike & Hike trail. They added a bridge and a cascading trail. The south end is under construction and will eventually connect to the Ohio & Erie Trail in Akron, they did add an access trail to a road and you could connect the Ohio & Erie trail via this, need a good gps device, the existing trail is in good condition. homeless people
A beautiful scenery trail shared with Amish horse and buggy riders. Some areas ride a little rough, but overall well worth riding it.
Great day for a ride. This was a nice family ride with 9 year old. Beautiful farm fields, bird activity. Some shade, too (around 2pm)! Not crowded at all! (7/13/2025). We’ll be back!
Completed the newer section on July 9, 2025 and was disappointed, I was fortunate to find thanks to an out of state visitor parking at trail. Was peaceful and when the leaves change would be more scenic.
Aside from there not being a place to grab a bite close by in Washingtonville (ended up at Fat Ted’s which closes at 2) this was a good choice for a high 80s day. Lots of shade and beautiful. Could use better trail markings in Leetonia where we needed help finding the trail.
We traveled 100 miles to this trail and really not impressed at all. Reading from the other reviews I maybe expected more. Though it is a nice scenic trail, there are a lot of trails out there that are nicer and more scenic. There really isn't much to see. We parked at M/M 6 in Scio. Traveled east to Jewett at mile marker 11. One covered bridge, zero shade on this section. It was a hot sunny day. Too hot, too sunny. Not much in Jewett. The trail grass was well taken of, recently cut and there are trash cans along which appeared to be regularly emptied. Coming back into Scio we refilled our water bottles and headed the other direction, West to Bowerston. A few more covered bridges and maybe 5% shade cover. Not much to see along this section either. There was quite a bit of noise coming from some industrial sites just off the trail. I think there are some well traveled roads near the trail and not many trees to muffle the sound. Checked this one off the list, worth riding once but not a do-over.
