Mahoning River Water Trail

This trail stretches nearly 23 miles of the East Branch of the Mahoning River and provides good locations for paddling, fishing and nature observation. Access to the river and other amenities are available at six parks currently open to the public: Foster MetroPark; Newton Falls City Park; Thomas A Swift MetroPark; Canoe City MetroPark; and both Burbank and Packard Parks. 

One of the best ways to enjoy the river is by renting kayaks from Mahoning River Adventures!  Basic safety instruction is offered, and then river riders can choose between a short 3.7-mile (2 hour) jaunt or a longer 11-mile (6 hour) course for those who want to make a day of it.
