Buckeye Trail

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Buckeye Trail is a 1,450 miles (2,330 km) long-distance trail that loops around the state of Ohio. Part of it is on roads and part is separate trail. Road portions of the trail are gradually being relocated to separate trail.

This trail passes through many of the most scenic locations in the state, such as the Hocking Hills region and the Cuyahoga Valley National Park.

The trail's northern terminus is on Lake Erie in Headlands Beach State Park east of Cleveland. From the northern terminus, one branch leads south down the eastern edge of the state while another leads west across the north.

The two branches rejoin in southwestern Ohio in the city of Milford, where a single branch continues west to Eden Park in Cincinnati, Ohio, the southern terminus.

The North Country Trail coincides with the Buckeye Trail for a large part of its route, and the American Discovery Trail also coincides with it through southern Ohio.

The trail is being developed and maintained by the Buckeye Trail Association.
