A 1444-mile trail loop, the Buckeye Trail starts at Mento Headlands and reaches all the way around the state while making a smaller loop through the Cleveland/Akron area. If you've seen blue blazes painted on trees in local parks or along the road, you’ve stumbled upon the Buckeye Trail.
A yearly gathering of trail enthusiasts, hikers, and trail maintainers, the Buckeye Trailfest takes place in a different part of the state each year. It's designed to make the general public aware of everything the trail has to offer.
This year’s event takes place from April 30 to May 3 at Camp Manatoc, Peninsula, Cuyahoga Valley National Park. There will be hikes for all skill levels in Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Cleveland Metroparks and Summit Metro Parks.
