Ohio Bikeways - Columbus Ohio Bike Trails

Resize A A A

Columbus bike trails are growing and linking up across the city. The Olentangy and Lower Scioto Bikeways have been a recreational fixture in Columbus, Ohio for many years. But recent times have seen the blossoming of a parallel bikeway route to the east along the Alum Creek.

The Trails

Ohio-to-Erie Trail Plans

The recent economic downturn has slowed area trail-building for the moment. But the Ohio-to-Erie Trail project, which will pass through the heart of the city, continues to chug along. The Ohio-to-Erie will approach from the southwest by way of the Camp Chase Trail and exit to the northeast using the Genoa Township Trail in Westerville. In between it will utilize sections of the Scioto, I-670 Bikeway and the Alum Creek Trail.

The Camp Chase Trail corridor is being developed at this time, while a key gap in the Alum Creek Trail will be closed in 2010.

More Trail Options

Major bike routes are not the only trail options in the Columbus area. The City park network also has trails within its borders as do some of the suburbs, such as Westerville and Dublin!
