Gwen Rummell Reporting –
Buckeye Trail Association (BTA), Muskingum Watershed Conservancy District (MWCD), Student Conservation Association (SCA), and American Conservation Experience (ACE) have teamed up to create a new off-road trail segment of the Buckeye Trail.
The new segment is a part of the Trails Corridor Project, which aims to expand the off-road segments of the Buckeye Trail in MWCD’s footprint.
The Buckeye Trail is a 1,400+ mile hiking trail linking the four corners of Ohio. The trail follows wooded footpaths, abandoned railroad corridors, historic canal towpaths, rivers, lake shores, and country roads, within both rural and urban settings.
The new trail segment will provide a safer experience for trail users by moving the trail off Moravian Trail Road and through Tappan Lake Park.
