Confirmed from Sharpsville Area Recreation Park's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Riverfront park featuring picnic tables, scenic views, boating and many fishing spots, plus hiking trails.
What runners say about Sharpsville Area Recreation Park
“I hesitate to say anything because this park is so beautiful.”
Great place for totality! Sure this review is weeks after the eclipse, but it was great. Loved the walls around the trail
Only existing lock from the Erie Canal Extension. Easy walk through the area. Mercer county is doing a bingo card scavenger hunt for the semiquincentennial. QR code for instruction in front of the log cabin.
Great walk but I think there was a very old wood bridge sunk in the water past the islands
