Train Ride and Hike!
Details
Train Ride and Hike! A mixed transportation experience. Eric has figured out a way to hike more of the Buckeye Trail without doubling back on the Towpath. We'll ride the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad the short distance from Boston Mills to Peninsula, then hike Peninsula to Boston Store using the Buckeye Trail, 5 - 5 1/2 miles with a couple hills and a stream crossing. The train station is now near the New Visitors Center
The train costs $5.00. Pay fare when you board. The train leaves Boston Mills at 9:35am, Be There 15 minutes early! The train will leave on time.
Parking is available at the new Visitors Center, at the Boston Store overflow parking lot on Boston Mills Road & at the south end of Boston Mills Ski Resort, directly across Riverview Road from the train.
Attention Dog Hikers & Short option hikers:
The CVSR Train does NOT allow dog passengers. For a "Dog" option or "Short" option : Meet us at the train in Peninsula by 9:50am, then take a short cut (2 1/2 - 3 mi total) from our Buckeye Trail route back to Peninsula.
