Rode 11 miles from Mt Vernon and back. The railroad depot in Mt Vernon is a great place to start. Ariel-Foundation park is very interesting and worth the time to explore. Trail is in good condition with lots of shade. And Mt Vernon is a great town to stay overnight and explore.
Awesome trail for a nice easy ride, very little elevation, good pavement, good scenery, kind of nice going through Clyde and other areas.
Location for parking says 136 E Bagley but should be 136 West Bagley.
We traveled over 4 hours to the Xenia area to ride this trail. We biked from Xenia Hub to Octa and back for just under a 40-mile round trip. Not real good signage from the Hub to this trail but we biked around until we found it! The trail is in very good condition, asphalt paved. The parks / county does a good job keeping the grass along the trail mowed. The trail is about half shaded and half open farmlands. We stopped in Jamestown for lunch at a Pub in town. There is a short paved path from the bike trail into Jamestown. Not much signage along the trail. Found nice restrooms at Caesar Ford campground between Xenia and Jamestown. At the Octa end we continued through the tiny one-block town and saw where it appears they are working on extending the trail East.
We stayed in Yellow Springs. Very quaint small town. Variety of restaurants and main street lined with shops. We biked from Yellow Springs to Springfield and back. Approx 20 mile round trip. The trail was well shaded and beyond the trees along the trail were farmlands and rural area. A few road crossings. Paved trail surface in very good condition and the grass was mowed along the trail.

Nobody had mentioned on which end to start at, so we started in Lisbon and rode 10 miles and turned around a lot of incline this way then coming back, but both ways it was up and down. Very hot day didn’t help. Trail was shaded most parts but had lots of sun too, you have to ride on the road 1/2 mile but there’s no traffic it’s like a side street. Take water with u as no place at either end for that. Bathrooms are at each end and 1 in the middle if you need. There’s a trailhead 4 blocks from where we started with indoor plumbing if u prefer that. All in all a great workout today !
The trail from Verona to trotwood was in great shape, appropriately marked, clean and no problems. Totwood South was problematic I decided not to take that today. A very nice ride with lots of things to see or stop.
We recently moved from Tennessee and this trail really surpassed all expectations. It was really well maintained and quite beautiful. It was an easy ride it’s nice and flat even though it’s tucked in the rolling hills of Guernsey County. This trail definitely rivals any you will find in Tennessee. Overall it was a wonderful experience.
My husband and I intended to ride from JR Smith Park this morning, but the park and its parking lot are CLOSED due to construction. We shifted northeast to the next available trailhead with parking at Newell Recreation Preserve to begin our ride. It was a beautiful day for a ride on the HOOT section of the OTET!
The Portage River Trail is a short trail running through the village of Pemberville located in northwest Ohio’s Wood County. It is built upon an old Toledo & Central Ohio Railroad right-of-way that ran between Stoney Ridge and Fostoria, Ohio.
The trail has a dirt/cinder surface and runs between Rees Rd/W. College Avenue and Alexander Road in Pemberville. Highlights along the trail include Pemberville Station and a bridge over the North Branch of the Portage River. Both of these rail remnants are in good condition and might be of interest to train aficionados, but considering the length and surface of this trail, it is definitely not one that I can recommend to anyone outside the immediate vicinity of Pemberville. I view this trail as primarily meant to be a walking trail for the village’s residents. Unless this trail would be extended northwest 6.75 miles to Stoney Ridge, OH or 15.5 miles south to just outside Fostoria, OH I think there is little reason to seek out this trail.
The Slippery Elm Trail is a flat, well-maintained trail found running through farmland in northwest Ohio. It runs 13 miles between the towns of Bowling Green and North Baltimore. The trailheads in both towns have nice trailheads with flush bathrooms, drinking water, and bike repair stations. Near the midpoint of the trail the village of Rudolph offers port-a-johns. The trail is wide and the asphalt surface is smooth. Where cracks have appeared they have been filled. Depending upon the time of year you ride the trail there may not be a lot to see. The parts of the trail that are shaded have lots of brush between the trees which make the trail seem like a green tunnel. Likewise, the parts of the trail running through corn fields also block seeing much of the surrounding countryside. Since much of the trail running through farmland is not shaded, using sunscreen would be a wise idea. In addition, I would suggest to make sure you carry a cell phone. I found the trail to feel somewhat isolated. On the weekday that I rode an out-and-back ride of the entire trail I did not encounter a single other person using the trail. If you have a crash or an emergency occur while on the trail, I don’t think you can rely on someone coming by to assist you.
