We rode this trail for the first time today. Started at the Tare Creek trailhead and rode north. Beautiful covered bridges along the way add to the scenic beauty. Most of the trail was easy riding. At the north side of Chardon is a hill we hadn’t expected. Stopped at the ballpark in Chardon where there is a nice historic display about the railroad in Chardon. We didn’t make the trail end-to-end, but did end up with 29.5 miles.
We biked the entire length of the trail and it's various surfaces. Meadville end is paved and well shaded. On the western side of Route 19 it's gravel for a few miles, very rough. Traveling further West towards Conneaut Lake it's dirt and bumpy and seems to have gotten worse since we last rode on this section. Will stick to it on foot or snowshoeing in the Winter. Pretty scenery though and a good bit shaded. We ate at Silver Shores in Conneaut Lake across the street from the trail. At the Conneaut Lake trailhead, just behind Conneaut Wine Cellars, there is a new pavlion which is very nice.
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
Nice trail close to home for us. On nice days we bike the trail to town, ending near water tower, stop and get a bite to eat and ride back to Cenfield. Pleasant and always see wildlife.
We accessed this trail in Franklin where the Allegheny River Trail ends. Seamless connection offers an additional 7 miles from Franklin to Oil City. Flat rail trail, paved, follows the Allegheny River. Historic signs and sights along the way. A little bit of shaded areas.
We have been riding this trail for 3 years. Use caution on several hills and curves. It appears as if storms or runoff have caused some ruts that were “filled” with very large gravel making bike control harder. For walking, it would be okay.
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.
The park on the east end has been repaved and can add a mile to your ride. You can add another mile at the park In Mantua The trail is in good condition just slight erosion off one area, there are some bumps from the asphalt to the dirt as you pass some roads, Most mile markers are not legible but no biggie! Very shaded in summer and fall colors could be spectacular
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.
Nice, well maintained trail. The section from Lisbon to Teegarden is especially beautiful, although there is a bushier section that is on road, albeit a less traveled back road. A short detour at Teegarden will take you to a covered bridge.
