Hockhocking Adena Bikeway

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Hockhocking Adena Bikeway is an 18-mile-long bicycle path in Athens County, Ohio, in the United States. The original section of the path was built on a levee along the Hocking River at Ohio University in Athens, on university land. It was gradually expanded and now crosses university land, city land, and county land. The greater part of the path is a rail trail, (a bicycle path built on an abandoned railroad grade). The eastern terminus of the path is near the Pepsi plant on East State Street on the east side of Athens and its western terminus is at Robbins' Crossing at Hocking College in Nelsonville.

The bikeway will expand further into Nelsonville in the near future. The bikeway will extend from the current ending point at Hocking College and follow the existing railroad path across the Hocking River to the Rocky Brands Factory Outlet at the intersection of Canal Street and Myers Street, one block from the Historic Square Arts District.
