of Ohio It also has maps of the State and Regions of Ohio to help you find a
trail in your County or Region. For an alphabetical list of all RailTrails read down this
page.
The following is an alphabetical
list of Rail and Towpath trails in Ohio. Rail-Trails are recreational trails that
have been built on or along abandoned railroad lines. Some trails listed here are also
constructed along the towpaths of abandoned canals. There are a few trails here that did
not start as either railroad lines or towpaths but are included because theyconnect
to RailTrails or towpaths.
This list was originally prepared by the Ohio Chapter of the Rails-To-Trails Conservancy.
Steve Myers added some extra information that he knew of, or could determine from maps or
other sources. "?" indicates unknown, "(?)" indicates speculation on
Steve's or my part. Corrections or additions are welcomed.
