West Branch Trail
Pass several of Canton’s biggest tourist attractions as you walk or bike along this 4.50 limestone trail connecting West Park, the former Mother Goose Land, Waterworks Park, Monument Park, Stadium Park, Ink Park, and Covered Bridge Park. The trail follows the West Branch of the Nimishillen Creek through Canton City Parks and Recreation locations and parallels I-77 north before ending at Covered Bridge Park.
Hit the trail with your pet! Just remember that dogs must be leashed at all times, and owners must dispose of pet waste properly.
The West Branch Trail has been adopted by the CSE Federal Credit Union, they sponsor cleanup projects along the trail throughout the year.
