I’m a newer rider and decided to ride from Ira trailhead north to Boston Mills. It was about a 14 mile round trip, mostly flat ride. It was absolutely beautiful for a crisp, fall ride! There were some areas of congestion along the way, but most of the ride was quiet and relaxing. I look forward to trying other areas of the trail!
Really nice views, very scenic at parts, and get to ride by some cool landmarks
We just finished the GAP trail & C&O towpath 9/20 from Pittsburgh to DC. We took 8 days and our days ranged between 32 miles to 63 miles. Highly recommend this trail. Well maintained, accessible and clean port a John’s, always had plenty of toilet paper and were frequent enough to remove any anxiety about not being able to relieve yourself in privacy. Potable water was available along the trail which we still used a filter just to be safe. Beautiful trail, friendly riders and towns to visit. We rented a full sized SUV in DC and dropped it off at the Budget on Stanwix St just two blocks from fountain starting point. Worked perfectly to get going on our ride without delay.
I just completed the entire GAP. It was well worth it. The trail was in good shape and there was not too much traffic. I’d like to do it again.
We were passing through the area and looking for a trail to ride for a couple of hours. The Brooke Pioneer trail was nice. For the mostpart away from roads with the Ohio River to the west. It merged into the Wheeling Heritage Trail seamlessly. IMO its not a destination trail but very nice for a 25 mile ride RT while in the area. We didn't do all of the Wheeling Heritage trail due to time limits but enjoyed what we did. (We raced a tugboat pushing a barge upstream and won!) (bragging rights - no prizes)
My wife was running a 5K in Moundsville, WV and we camped at Barckcamp State Park. On the way home to Akron we stopped and did the Conotton Trail. We did it about 10 years ago but didnt remember much. It was a delightful trail; good asphalt, pastoral country scenery, mostly shady.
We were pulling our 65lb dog in a trailer and we passed someone pulling a 108lb Rottweiler in a trailer (neither on ebikes) and enjoyed the interaction.
Recommend parking at Jewett. It's a large parking area and easy to find. (perfect since we had a trailer. Bowerstown has room for 1-2 cars at the trailhead.
It was a beautiful drive through the rolling hills of SE Ohio on a stunning late summer day with blue skies, warm temperatures and the fall colors starting to come out. It's a little out of the way but if you are passing by with your bikes and have a couple of hours its worth it. Or if you're staying in the area and are looking for a nice, easy bike path you won't be disappointed.
This trail is a hidden gem. Excellent ride to Lisbon today and back. 25 miles round trip give or take. I saw 9 deers and several brave squirrels darted around my tires. If you get a chance, ride this trail
We are traveling and today was the only day we had to ride the trail. We entered at the Rockside Station and rode south. About 4 miles in, it started to rain off and on. We were sad because the forecast said 0% chance. Rode on for another few miles. By this time my husband's back was covered in mud from the wet trail and he was chilly, so we turned around and headed back. Total miles ridden was 17, so we only got a small portion but we loved it. So beautiful with yellow wildflowers all around. Informative historical signs tell you about the Erie Canal and life on the canal. Neat. I wish we could have ridden the train and then biked back, but we found out it doesn't run on Monday and Tuesday, and guess when we were here, yup Monday and Tuesday. If we are ever back in the area we would definitely ride it again!
Nice, well maintained, and a variety of uses. We bike, but we have seen skaters, bikers, joggers, walkers, wagons, and strollers. The little covered bridge is a nice stop in Teegarden. Nice mix of shade and sun. Definitely recommend
We biked this trail along the section which runs through the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. First we took advantage of the Explorer Program offered by the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad. For $5 you can purchase a one-way ticket, load your bike and take the train to one of the stations then bike riding back. The train was nice and air conditioned. No need to make reservations, purchase the $5 ticket when you board. They have bike restrictions (bike weight) so visit their website for all the information including the schedule. www.cvsr.org
We ate lunch in Peninsula. Eddys bike shop in Peninsula burned to the ground over the Winter they are now operating out of a cement block garage offering bike rentals. There is a farm market along the trail to check out. The trail is mostly crushed limestone with a few paved sections and boardwalks. So many old locks and remnants of the canal. There is an ice cream shop at Boston Mills. Most of the trail is well shaded. Train stations along the way, and some public restrooms but not necessarily at the train stations. All around great way to spend the day! Take the train and you can bike back as little as a few miles or up to 22.
Biking this trail did not disappoint! Shout out to Metroparks and Cuyahoga Valley National Park for maintaining and connecting the trail. We started at the Boston Mills Trailhead /Visitor Center and used the train in both directions…$5 and they did load our e-bikes. Scenic, charming, and good surface. Stayed at Richfield motel. Convenient.
