Description

Full of nature's beauty, the Moonville to Kings Hollow route is perfect for sightseeing tourists in Southeast Ohio. This relatively short and flat ride uses the two tunnels as the start and end points, Moonville Tunnel and Kings Hollow Tunnel. This route is frequented by bicyclists of all kinds, equestrians, and pedestrians.

The trailhead of this route has a large gravel parking area. The entirety of this trail, aside from the bridges that cross over Raccoon Creek, is comprised of stone dust. The Moonville Rail Trail Association is an NPO that provides maintenance and improvements to the trail and is comprised of members from the surrounding communities who love this trail. The route, from tunnel to tunnel and back, is about 5 miles long and cuts through the wetlands of Zaleski State Forest. Long sleeves/ bug spray are necessities on this route.
