Peninsula to Brandywine Falls bike ride at Cuyahoga Valley NP

Connecting two of the most popular areas of Cuyahoga Valley National Park, this 9-mile bike ride takes you from Peninsula to Brandywine Falls. It uses the Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail, the Old Carriage Trail and the Summit Bike & Hike Trail.

I started at Lock 29 and arrived at Brandywine Falls about an hour and a half later. along the way I passed Stumpy Basin Wetland and boardwalk, the Boston Store, multiple locks from the canal era, beautiful forests and fields.

Brandywine Falls is 65 feet tall and one of the most-visited areas of the national park. It can easily be called the best waterfall in Northeast Ohio.

The Ohio & Erie Canal Towpath Trail is one of the best bike trails in Ohio at stretches 110 miles from Cleveland to New Philadelphia. The Summit Bike & Hike Trail is 34 miles from Bedford to Portage County and it was one of the first rails-to-trails conversions in the nation.

If you're spending time in Peninsula in the national park, consider that you can rent a bike at Century Cycles, follow this bike route and see an incredible waterfall! I hope you enjoy the ride. - John
