Most of the bridges are missing. It's a beautiful trail with lots of cool little spots. If you're not a horse, and also cool with wet feet, this trail is challenging but beautiful. I mean, horses get wet feet on this trail, too, but I think their shoes dry out faster.

Super beautiful! Pretty good amount of ups and downs making it a pretty easy hike! Went in the evening on a rainy night and definitely need to be careful if it's been rainy as the trail gets slippery. It was supposed to be a 4 mile hike but just FYI I tracked it from the trailhead and it was actually 6 miles. Don't want people getting stuck out in the dark like I was haha

Excellent hike and beautiful skies. This is primarily a horse trail, but the only two riders we crossed paths with were very cool. A lot of rise and fall on this four mile path. Good workout

Great 4.5 mile hike. Has hills and varying terrain. Walk through a couple creeks along the way so would definitely recommend boots. Only downfall is that horses use it as well so need to watch out for horse poop along the trail. Easy parking.

Beautiful views and waterways. Not many people once 15 minutes on the trail.

One of the best places in the area for bridle paths and hiking, in my opinion!

A secluded 4-5 mile adventure. This place is usually rather muddy most of the year and being a bridle trail you can come up on some horses time to time, but still one of my favorite trails. Hosting a variety of scenes, I find myself coming back again and again.

Beautiful trails. I recommend boots and trekking poles. There is a little mud from the horses hooves and quite a few stream crossings where poles are helpful.
A number of hills make for a very nice trail of moderate difficulty.

The trail has obvious signs of care. Erosion is a battle in areas like this where wind and water can damage the path extensively, there are measures taken to keep the trail intact and safe. Few people were in the trail at the time of my visit, all we're pleasant. Signs at junctions help guide you on your intended path.

Very muddy and slippery, but a great hike. Be prepared to share with horses.

Really nice trail, lots of elevation change! It was really beautiful. If you go in the spring I suggest waterproof shoes you cross the stream a few times with no bridge.

Wetmore Trail is a 4 mile bridal loop trail with offshoots to other trails. Up and down the rolling wooded hills along with some level areas with stream crossings. Great place to hike with snow, but would have a different look with each season! Great place!

This is a 4-mile loop trail. It's probably one of the more peaceful places to walk and feel like you're getting away from everything. It's very peaceful. I saw a couple coyotes cross my path here.

This rugged and diverse trail and those that branch off of it offer the most remote - feeling hiking experience in all of this urban National Park. Take your time here to take in the sights, especially toward the end if you walk counter-clockwise, and watch out for the mud and other damage that comes with this being a path shared with horses. A small price to pay for a big payoff.

Nice place to hike or bird. Spots in the lot are reserved for horse trailers especially on the weekend. If the lot is full you can access more parking on Quick Road and you can still hike on the main loop.

One of the most diverse trails in the CVNP. Perfect if you want to feel like you are far away from the city.

This is one of my favorites at cuyahoga valley. It takes a good 2 hours at a decent pace and offers a variety of terrain that gets my heart rate up a bit. Plus, parking at Kendall hills makes for a drop dead gorgeous, perfect place to start and end any hike!

Love this trail. It's mostly shaded and hilly, with some water. My horse lost a boot and some kind soul brought it back out to the trailhead and set it on a rock where it would be seen. Thank you, good Samaritan!

It was a nice place. Great opportunities for pictures. Make sure you bring water and good shoes with you.

Gorgeous, and shady. The trail was definitely challenging if you have isses with ups and downs I would pick another path. I saw this snail shell while hiking. Very neat.
