Confirmed from Towpath Trail at Tremont'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.
Path by the Cuyahoga River and the Cleveland skyline, popular for fishing, biking and running.

Many interesting photo opportunities. Vintage Cleveland juxstaposed against newer construction. Vegetation reclaiming the area which adds color. Hidden areas ripe for exploration.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THE TOWPATH TRAIL(S) IT ACTUALLY HAS 3-4 TRAIL OPTIONS, AND ONE WITH A INCLINE(OOUUU WEE) THAT TAKES YOU TO TOP @W. 13TH STREET. GREAT WORKOUT!
Love the towpath around the Cleveland area. There a number of paths and connections to other roads that you can make it any distance you want. Especially like the segment along the river and up the hill into Tremont. Feels like a park a bit despite being just outside the city.
Great jogging path with wonderful views of the city, river and bridges. A little hilly to get the heart pumping. Great for biking and just a nice stoll.

“Great for RAILFANS, view the 100+ year old, large and expansive rail yards, B&O roundhouse, maintenance facilities and railroad bridges ALL on the shores of the Cuyahoga river.”
