Middle Branch Trail
Hike, bike, walk, run, or jog on this 7.7 mile trail connecting neighborhoods and nature in Canton and Plain Township! This limestone and asphalt trail follows along a portion of the Middle Branch of the Nimishillen Creek.
The Middle Branch Trail is maintained by Stark Parks and connects Canton City Parks including Robert E. Schreiber Park, Reifsnyder Park, Oak Park, and Martindale Park. The trail continues north along the railroad tracks then meanders next to Gervasi Vineyard and Rice’s Nursery. The trail then loops around Plain Township’s Veterans Community Park, continues north across Schneider St., and loops around GlenOak High School.
An on-road connection to the Hoover Trail through Lexington Farms allotment on Easton St uses the sidewalk parallel to Rosedown Blvd. before heading west on Stone Crossing St. where the trail picks back up before going under Market Ave.
At Maple St. on the south side of Rt. 62, an on-road connector using Colonial Blvd. provides access to neighborhoods and meets the Pioneer Trail at Market Ave.
The Middle Branch Trail from Martindale Rd. to Maple St. has been adopted by the Synchrony, the group sponsors cleanup projects along the trail throughout the year.
