Great 1.5 - 2 hour hike, I give it a moderate rating (has plenty of hills).
Great workout with steep grades, creek crossing, and some rough terrain. I would have given it a higher rating if it weren't for the fact that you have to walk through Peninsula. First half of the trail is great though.
I rate it moderate to difficult due to the steep grades and the makeshift bridges that must be crossed.
This is a fantastic, challenging trail. However, I came at the wrong time of the year to truly enjoy it...I spent way too much time getting through or around water-logged trails...and it did rain that day too, which didn't help. This is definitely a rustic, natural, ungroomed trail...lots of true water hazards on the trail, and the make-shift bridges can be dangerous (fell once, and thankfully didn't break or twist anything).Once I...
BT ,Towpath, Valley Trail from Boston, Jaite, Pine Lane
Boston, Ohio, United States
Hiking | 14.9 miles
Hiking | 14.9 miles
This trip is based on the final 2 hikes of the 2011 Conservancy for Cuyahoga Valley National Park challenge -
Buckeye and Towpath Trails From Boston to Jaite - From the Boston Store Visitor Center parking lot, follow Boston Mills Road west, cross Riverview Road, and follow the Buckeye Trail sign on your left. Climb the steep hill marked with the blue blazes of the Buckeye Trail. Note that two blue blazes on...
Good moderate trail with plenty of good scenery. I would have given it 5 stars but a good part of it is located near the road. Granted, the traffic is not heavy but even the occasional car passing by, in some ways, ruins the hike.
This was a nice short hike with my son. We spent most of our time exploring the rock formations.
Cuyahoga Valley NP - Boston Store Visitor Center to Brandywine Falls; now that’s
a nice hike.
Sunday, April 07, 2013 - MsHick and I spend a lot of time in
National Parks, but very little in the one right in our backyard, Cuyahoga
Valley. The last time we did any serious
outdoor activity in CVNP was back in 2004 when we rented bikes and rode along the
tow path for a few hours. As I recall we
rode from...
Hiking Hounds trip. Buddy climbed half way up the falls.
This trail was not very picturesque but was a great workout. The slushy conditions made it extremely difficult to hike. This is probably a great trail to hike in the summer or in the snow with snowshoes but definitely not in 50 degree weather when the snow is melting. In these conditions I would rate it as “difficult” but otherwise I’d give it a “low moderate.”
This is such a beautiful walk/hike. We love to go off trail to take a peek at the river and other nature around us. Seeing the falls at the end makes all the stairs and steep hills well worth the climb!
This is at horseshoe Pond. Walked around the pond then hiked Tree Farm Trail.
CVNP Boston Run Trail to Haskell Run Trail to Ledges Trail loops
Chittendens Corners, Ohio, United States
Hiking | 6.3 miles
Hiking | 6.3 miles
This trip is based on 3 hikes from the Cuyahoga Challenge 2011: Boston Run Trail, Haskell Run Trail, and Ledges Trail...these can all be done together via the connector trails between them. I parked in the lot on the south side of 303 across from the Happy Days Lodge did the Boston Run first, then half of the Haskell on the way to Ledges, then completed Haskell on the return trip to...
Nice long trip. Hilly for the most part. Passes 2 marked waterfalls and very scenic. Very muddy on my hike 3/23 so be aware of previous weather conditions. I deviated from another loop posted and did road hiking because I wasn't sure if I was going to hit BW falls. I would recommend turning down towpath and taking trail to BW Falls. Buckeye trail was quiet with the occasional runner and very...
