This trail is a great place to ride quiet and peaceful it does need some attention at the Fairfield to Leetonia and the street ride though Leetonia is awfully bumpy. there is a place for ice cream at Donna bike shop where u can also rent bikes. It does have limited hours and is right down at the start in Lisbon There is also a Dairy Queen in Leetonia on the same side that the parking is on. Another thing is if you ride to the railway station in Lisbon they have a nice restroom there with running water, a soda machine and an air pump for a quarter there are also picnic tables there. It's a nice stop!
This is a beautiful trail for bikers and hikers. Can bike from one end to the other in a few hours. The Dairy Queen in Leetonia is a great place to bike to for a rest before heading back down the trail. Great places to park.
This is a great resource in Columbiana County to get out, stretch your legs and get some exercise.....for free. I walk a few miles on it about 5 days a week, even in winter.
We walked part of the trail and thoroughly enjoyed the heavily wooded, quiet scenery and the filtered sunlight. It would be fun to enjoy by bicycle. The scenery changes and keeps you engaged. Great for photographs and relaxing.
Great place to ride bikes and run. I've grown up in this area and I remember what it was like before it was paved. Now that it's paved it's a lovely place to get exercise.
Love the quiet all seasons of the year. Spring and winter is my favorite. Summer sometimes it gets too busy for me and an area is swampy so many bugs in the summer. It is maintained well also.
The Greenway Trail is a gem in eastern Ohio just over the border from Western Pennsylvania. The well-maintained trail is ten miles in length with very little grade which makes it easy and enjoyable to ride for both novices and experienced cyclists. The 10-foot-wide trail is paved with asphalt and a small part of it is on a roadway (not more than a half mile). It crosses lightly-traveled roads in about six places. Mile markers help you keep track of progress. The trail wanders alongside the Beaver Creek, past farm land, sprawling meadows, and some rocky hills. About half of the trail is shaded by trees. The roughest stretch of the trail is between mile markers 8 and 9 where it passes through a swampy area. The trail is buckled throughout, most likely from the unstable ground and roots beneath the asphalt. There are also a couple rough bridges in this stretch. Entry points are available in various places: the town of Lisbon at the official head of the trail on S. Market Street (bathrooms are available); mile marker zero on S. Lincoln Avenue; near mile marker 6 (?); near mile marker 8; and at mile marker 10. Water is not available at the parking lots, except perhaps at the Market Street location. There's a bike shop at mile marker zero (Donna's Bicycle Shop). Most of the parking lots have porta johns. The trail is well-maintained and even includes easy access to a covered bridge.
Because of rain, I did only a small portion of the trail but it was secluded, heavily wooded, and paved (not stone dust). I would consider a 5 rating if the pavement were in better condition and if I had seen an ice cream stand! Seriously, they need to do a little maintenance on the pavement. It's OK but showing its age with a few very rough spots.
This trail was perfect. We set out for a morning bike ride from Lisbon. The trail was well-shaded, nice and cool, with more sun coming through in the afternoon. We did a little geocaching along the whole length of the trail. The scenery changes quite a bit, giving you a lot to look at, including a neat little covered bridge (if you want to take a slight detour). We have ridden this trail twice now and have said great things after each ride. Highly recommended!!
Great scenery...Well maintained, A must do if you enjoy nature
