Rode this trail yesterday, 8/29/26. Second visit to this trail. Kudos to the folks that were involved in the trail creation, and to those who maintain it. Totally paved, a variety of scenery, plenty of port-a-potties and benches, and just a fun, flat trail. Finish your day with a cold brew at Inn the Wilds with pizza! Life is good.
We did the entire paved path including the little extension near Meadville. Very nice!
Biked on the Samuel Justus Trail and used this trail to access the McClintock Trail.
Group ride. We parked in Franklin and biked South to Sunnyslope for 12.5 miles and back. This is the best section of the trail since everything from Kennerdell tunnel and South is like a washboard. 3.25 miles South of Franklin there is a hillside erosion and caution tape, since April 2026. Follow along the trail and go through the grass.
We tried all three trail heads. Tally Ho was washed out and impassable. Traveled up the road to the Red Bridge. Crossed the bridge and turned around and loaded our bikes back up. It was a single dirt lane with overgrown grass and wash out divets up and down the path. Didn’t even seem hikable let alone bikable. We ended at Westline. Road the trail for 3.2 miles and a large tree was across the trail and again, impassable. We turned around. The trail itself was “ok”. Some spots were pretty rough and we had to creep through to not be knocked off.
Nice smooth, basically flat trail. Many benches to take a break if needed.
We went on a pleasant, mostly cloudy day in August. Went from mile 58 to 46 and back. This section is a very nice, mostly rural/woods trail. The surface (crushed limestone) is generally good; the trail is sometimes as wide as a car lane, sometimes narrows down considerably (mostly due to the edges are not in as good shape as the middle). It does cross roads in spots, but most are not busy. I'd say 70% of it is in the shade, with some sections in the sun (but most sun sections are not long, so this would be a good trail for a hot day). Kane has a surprisingly large downtown, with quite a few restaurants (the Table 105 restaurant is quite good). The scenery is not spectacular (no dramatic waterfalls or cliffs) but beautiful woods with lots of large trees and pleasant fields. It was not very crowded when we went.
We loved the trail for it being well maintained and for the asphalt however there are a few parts of the trail where the road must be shared with autos. It could use a little better signage for the mid point turn back/surrey direction intersection as well as where to go at the monument area.
Trail is opened there are no closures at the utility pipeline construction site. Mile marker 2. All clear! July, 2026.
This trail is one of the nicest in the area! Really awesome when a train comes through!
