Very nice trail, hilly and punchy. You will get a workout. Well maintained, recent fresh asphalt. Almost entirely in the shade on a hot June morning. Meets up with the hike and bike trail at the lower end.
Mostly flat, very light inclines at times, sunny and shade areas. Trail does break and jag near railroad crossing roughly 1/2 way through. Beautiful farmland and woodland areas, raspberries and elderberries alongside trail. Hardly any trail traffic...my friend and I rode side by side majority of trail. Not much to do or see in Rittman or Creston, but occasional bar or tiny restaurant if you need refreshment at either end of trail. I parked nearby Creston police station and was welcomed by a friendly officer. If you want to experience the country and small town bliss, this is the trail.
A mix of cinder(about 2 miles in New London) and large stone and rough terrain the rest of the trail made for a rough, uncomfortable and tricky ride. The nice mix of sun and shade along the entire trail was a positive. Not recommended.
I ride this trail frequently. It is beautiful, clean and well kept. I highly recommend it.
I have to say a big THANK YOU to the Portage County Parks District for repairing a good portion of the sections of the trail. So much smoother. Keep up the good work.
Started in Lisbon and rode north to the northern end of the trail. A good portion is shaded. Entire trail is in great shape. Trail signs in Leetonia are missing. When riding north through Leetonia, stay on Main St., which turns into Cherry Valley Rd, then right onto East High Street, which connects with the last few miles of the trail.
We biked the trails yesterday from Fredericksburg to Millersburg, we bike the trails a lot and we love it. My only concern is the stretch of trail between Fredericksburg and Holmesville is getting so rough and there are cracks in the center of the trail that you can get your bike wheel in, that it's getting a little dangerous. I'm hoping it will get repaved soon.
First time on this trail. Started off at the North Lake park. The covered trail with the tree canopy was a little chilly. But the views were amazing. Traffic was very light. The path is well maintained. This is one of my favorite thus far.
Road this trail from Dalton to Messner RD in Massillon on Mother’s Day. I hacked this trail two years ago and you can tell there hasn’t been much maintenance done. The paved area was bumpy. The graveled area was much smoother. Caution at the bridges because the steel plates are rough at the transition from trail to bridge. I find the foot traffic is low on the paved area. No foot traffic when you get to the gravel section. Everyone is friendly on the path and the views are outstanding. Saw a few squirrels and one ground hog. The shaded tree area by the creek is so relaxing. No trash along the trail, so it’s nice to see users are helping keeping it clean.
A buddy and I rode the Metroparks Bikeway and the Niles Greenway on Friday. My overall impression of the trail was very good. The pavement is nice and the Kirk Rd. trailhead where we started was very nice also. The downsides of the trail are actually quite minor. There are cracks in the pavement on the section north of Kirk Rd but unlike some other reviewers who saw them as awful I found them just a bit of a distraction. If you've ever ridden paved trails with root or frost heaves these are nothing. I'm not sure how you could wreck on them as I believe someone suggested. The other downside is the number of road crossings. By our count I believe we had 13 crossings. Double that for a round trip of course. The route south from Kirk Rd. was my favorite though, fewer crossings, no cracks and a bit more wooded of farmland feeling. I have no regrets riding this trail.
Trail still says it's closed, could the Great Trail Boy Scout trust be the reason?
