LoST in Mt Vernon OH on the Bridge of Dreams - a Smart-Guided Bikeway Tour
LoST on the Bridge of Dreams, Ohio
- a Smart-Guided Bikeway Tour Adventure
Do it all. Or do half. End to end a beautiful long or short smart-guided bikeway adventure in Ohio's Amish country
This LoST (Long or Short Tour) adventure has some noticeably nice features leading to the Bridge of Dreams! Most notable is the bikeway ride through the deeply wooded countryside. The tour runs alongside or crosses over three scenic rivers - Mohican River, Jelloway Creek, and Kokosing River - using three rails-to-trails bikeways: Mohican Valley Trail, Kokosing Gap Trail, and Heart of Ohio Trail. The route is mostly rail-to-trail, quite rural, and has a flexible total length with optional starting spots.
At the tour's turnaround spot is Ohio's famous Bridge of Dreams, which "happens to be the second-longest covered bridge in the state and the third-longest in the nation". The bridge serves as a link for the Amish equestrian community connecting the Holmes County Trail to the Mohican Valley Trail. It is "the first recreational trail in the country designed to accommodate Amish horse-drawn buggies". At moments you may even be sharing the trail with horse-drawn Amish buggies.
Along the route is a popular small-town refreshment stop at a quaint tavern (details included with ticket). Restroom facilities, also, are conveniently positioned along the way.
With numerous scenic vistas and railroad history this memory-making tour often experiences several ooh-and-ahh stops along with group and selfie poses.

GO LONG OR GO SHORT!
You can do it all or do half. End to end this is a beautiful long or short smart-guided bikeway adventure to the Bridge of Dreams in Ohio's Amish country.
Your choice - ride 18 or 40 miles. Both routes are shaded most of the way and 92% level bikeways with one hill climb to reach the midway tasty stop. Trailside bike racks are at that point to lock bikes if walking up the hill to the restaurant.
How a LoST works. The 18-mile and 40-mile routes start at different locations; travel along the same bikeways; allow both groups (long and short - in case your crew is riding along with you) an opportunity to stop at the same CycleNuts tested and approved tasty spot; turn around at the Bridge of Dreams.
