Oil Creek State Park Trail

Great Spring Ride

May, 2024 by vicki1960

Warm and sunny Spring day parked in Petroleum Center next to the Park Office. Very well shaded. Biked to Titusville and back for a 25 mile round trip. While in Titusville also rode on Queen City Trail and rode through Drake Well park. The vehicle bridge in Petroleum Center has been closed at least 18 months and a new one isn't scheduled to be rebuilt until 2026. In the meantime, the bridge is open for pedestrians and cyclists. And as always, our State Parks in Pennsylvania are free to visit.

Meadville to Conneaut Lake Ride-May 2024

May, 2024 by vicki1960

Biked from Meadville (Beans Trailhead) to Conneaut Lake, approx 11 miles one way. First 4.25 miles are asphalt paved. Cross over route 19 and go approx 2 miles on gravel section to the Bailey Road trailhead. Continue West using the new Watson Run Bridge. The remaining 4 miles are dirt and grass and follows the old canal. This is very peaceful and scenic. Trail ends behind Conneaut Cellars Winery in Conneaut Lake. Doable on a hybrid bike but a gravel bike would work better. Saw a Beaver Dam, family of geese and various birds. The last 4 miles pass thru PA State Game Lands. Dress accordingly per season.

Five Bridges Trail

Fun and Scenic Trail

May, 2024 by lzpttn

I rode my bike from Allens Mills to Arch St Extension and back. There has been much improvement to the trail since last autumn! The trail has been rolled and the rough clinky rocks were not a problem. Much smoother. It was a wonderful ride. The beavers have been busy this spring performing maintenance on their dams. There are 2 large beaver ponds on the trail. I love this trail and will return again and again!

Moraine State Park Bike Trail

Spring Ride

May, 2024 by vicki1960

Usually hit this trail a few times a year. It's 7.5 ish miles in length, paved and follows the North Shore along Lake Arthur. There are many small hills and numerous turns. By all means this trail is far from straight! Trail starts at the bike rental (seasonal) and ends at Davis Marina where there is a beautiful view of the lake. Yellow line up the center of the trail has been recently painted. This park also offers boating, fishing, a beach, picnic areas, hiking (North Country Trail) disc golf and cabin rentals. Visit Moraine State Park website for more information.

Five Bridges Trail

Much better but still improving

May, 2024 by pboboige_tl

If you biking on the trail and were disappointed with the surface please try it again. We graded last year and it was rolled this spring.
There are a lot of wetlands, making it somewhat unique, but also buggy. Wear a repellant to make your ride/walk more enjoyable.
We are in the process of placing mile markers and installed two flower beds and some geocaches.
We put name markers on the bridges to match the map and help you to locate. We have a kiosk with brochures at the Allens Mills trailhead.
Please sign the log with your comments if you want. Please add your zip code.
We try to keep fallen trees off the trail but the beavers are very busy.
Happy trails!

Ernst Trail

Spring Ride

April, 2024 by vicki1960

Spring ride and so much flooding along the trail. French Creek way above its creek banks, into the woods and the fields along the trail flooded. This is due to so much recent rains. Trail is open but high waters along side.

Shenango Trail

Spring Hike 2024 & Flooding

April, 2024 by vicki1960

Mid April, extremely high waters due to very large amounts of recent rains. Some of the trial unable to pass due to overflowing Shenango River. Safety is important! As long as we don't get much rain any time soon, water levels will drop and as always, get out and enjoy some great hiking!

Armstrong Trails

Nice trail

April, 2024 by vicki1960

While in the Schenley area, decided to scope the new bridge over the Kiskiminetas River. The historic bridge was recently refurbished to accommodate the bike trail. This bridge is at the very southern end of the trail at the Kiskiminetas Junction where the is an active rail line looking to the South towards the Tredway Trail. At the Kiski Junction/Schenley there is ample parking and lock #5 on the Allegheny River is nearby. Trail surface is crushed limestone and newly laid. Will get more packed down as there are more trail users. Headed North on this trail a few miles. Follows the Allegheny River. In Schenley there are quite a few old factories along the trail but heading North, becomes scenic and peaceful.
