Nice trail and plenty of shade, great for long runs. Two fountains just off the path
Very good trail nice views and good distance. Downside is that you have to crash the street a couple of times. But great 5 mile hike

Not as difficult as a previous reviewer said but it was a bit muddy on the day I went. For a better challenge at the same Trailhead, try the Mingo Trail.

This trail would be more accurately described as moderate to difficult. Muddy sections after a rain; the trail crosses the Cuyahoga River and the towpath trail, as well as a few roads and trails in the Sand Run Park. Some sections are steep.
