PENINSULA, Ohio – People who like to bicycle along the paths in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park might enjoy the experience more.
The Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad begins a new program Saturday called Bike Aboard! that charges cyclists a $2 fare for the railroad.
Here’s how it works: People who bike the Ohio and Erie Canal Towpath Trail in one direction can ride the rail in the other direction for $2.
Cyclists can also decide how far along the rail they want to go, stopping at any of the six stations in between Independence and Akron.
The service is offered weekends in April and May. Train tickets normally range from $10 to $25.
The park hopes this will lure more people to use the park, and see more of the National Park as they do it.
