My son and I had an AMAZING time on this trail. Such a scenic and relaxing trail, I would highly recommend it if youre in the area.

Saw the bald eagles this morning. What a beautiful sight! Nice place to hike or run.

It is always nice to take a walk here. The trail is nice and the park is big and connects to other parks. The river and bridge is beautiful too.

We hiked the trail at Big Bend. First know that all water fountains are covered and closed. Second the trailhead bathrooms had a sign on one door stating they were closed. So, enjoy your hike but, dont count on the facilities. The trails were very busy. I thought if I heard to your left one more time! Well, it seems there were a lot of bikes out there with a few runners, a few dog walkers and numerous hikers. This being the case you may want to plan your visit in the earlier morning hours. This is the first time we started at 10 a.m. more busy than even 9 a.m. Enjoy your walk, nobody was wearing a face mask but, social distancing was upheld!

I catch the Towpath here at least once a week to ride my bike. Ive rode the whole Towpath and think this is probably the most scenic area of the trail. Jump on and go North, youll pass through Merriman Valley, then get deep into CVNP!

This part of the towpath trail is so beautiful. There seems to be ice skating in winter and camping somewhere.

Really neat metro park! There are tons of different trails. We did one lap on the parcour workout trail. It was a good 25 minute workout similar to circuit training. I cant wait to go back to explore other trails and picnic areas.

What views! And camping beside a mountain stream. So relaxing.

These trails are great for all ages and all abilities. Get out there and have some fun!

Nice flat hike/bike trail. Great for older people or someone trying to get back into shape

Beautiful place with plenty of parking. Towpath is great for walking, running, or biking. It was a well cared for park and the trails were well marked.

First time walking so far on the trail, absolutely beautiful

Beautiful park great trails well connected to other parks

Sand Run Park is just a great place for a walk, run, mediate and connects to bike paths all the way to Cleveland. I met a couple that came all the way trough Cali, rented a bike and took off.

Had a great overnight in the primitive camping area while practicing for a backpacking trip. Well marked and easy to find area right off of the towpath trail.

Crowded on weekends which, if you think about it, is good news. Scenic, level, easy family riverside stroll to the confluence of the Little Cuyahoga and back, or connect with longer and more challenging walks.

Seen 7 dear on side of trail very peaceful

Nice scenic walk, Cuyahoga Train passed us a couple times.

Its a rather large bend. 5 stars. Would bend again.

We visited here for a metroparks program about bats, we had a great time! Very nice well maintained trails

Nice park

Great place to get some exercise become one with nature as you walk through the trails and see the scenic River come here all the time you also can ride the bike trail

Love running here. The trail is clean and lots of good views.

One of my all time favorite parks! Amazing trails, beautiful scenery and packed full of animals and nature!! Theres so many activities to do, for people of all ages! Their visitor centre is one of the best Ive been to.

Its very fun but there always that one family that walks to the dip then gets mad at you cuse you went the speed limit and splashed them. This is America get over it.

Very BEAUTIFUL park, with great walking paths. There is the gravel sand like path, that is very level and easy to walk, then there are the hiking paths that wrap around through beautiful scenery and they are a little more strenuous if that is what you like. The restrooms are clean and kept decent (they are put toilets). My dog and I Love this park.

Incredible. Most of the path is a man made elevated walkway, but, that doesnt make it any less amazing.

Nice hiking trails

When I think of running sand

Great for running, walking, biking, frisbee. Go right for wood bridges, go left for shady woods and to find the Indian statue. Not the best spot for picnicking.

Nice all purpose trail.

Sand Run Metro Park is a convenient parking lot to take a short bike ride to Akrons Cascade Park and visit Mustill Store to see how life was back in the days of the Ohio and Erie Canal. However be prepared to take a short detour on Hickory Street and a short but steep 11.1% grade hill over the railroad tracks.

One of my favorite Trails

Lovely metro park. Great place to run or hike. I enjoy taking my dog here and walking the trails.

Wonderful large old trees with lots of birds...

Really nice trails

Nice area to hike and catch the train.

Primitive camping spot for buckeye trail through hikers, connection to railroad bike&hike, connection to walk over the cuyahoga

Very well maintained.

BIG BEND is always great to visit.....even during a rain storm!

Nice easy access trail. Gravel but level with some pavement and wooden bridges present.

Scenic trail

Great place to park to start your run or ride on the towpath.

Often crowded, but usually very well maintained try for hikers and walkers of all abilities

Were on the train

My dog and I love it here, so many trails to explore!

Beautiful park with great trails! Good for a day of adventure!
