Bass Island Trail Access

As the next step in the major renovation project at Bass Island, which will improve access to the Little Miami River while protecting the riverbank ecosystem, Great Parks of Hamilton County is expanding the parking lot and optimizing the auto entrance from Newtown Road. This work will require Great Parks to close a short, approximately half-mile section of the Little Miami Scenic Trail from Tuesday, April 21, through Friday, May 1. The trail will be closed from U.S. 50/Wooster Pike to the entrance to the Little Miami Golf Center for 12 days, including only one weekend.

7 miles between Morrow (MM 28.5) and Foster (MM 37.7)

Beginning Wednesday, April 22, a section of the Little Miami Scenic Trail between Morrow and Foster (Old 3C Highway) access points will be closed for pavement renovation. The expected completion date is Friday May 1, weather permitting.

This pavement renovation was funded by the 2025 fundraising effort performed by the Friends of the Little Miami State Park to resurface the oldest and roughest section of the trail. With the completion of this project and the planned South Lebanon Sewer Project also occurring under this same section of trail, the trail from Morrow to just short of Foster will have a brand new, smooth surface.

The Buckeye Trail Association (BTA) is pleased to announce that the Village of Morrow has been designated as the 23rd Buckeye Trail Town, recognizing its commitment to supporting hikers, cyclists, and outdoor recreation along the Buckeye Trail.

Morrow becomes the fourth Trail Town along the Little Miami State Park! Milford, Loveland and Spring Valley are also official Buckeye Trail Towns. Located in Warren County, northwest of Cincinnati, Morrow sits directly along the Buckeye Trail, which runs concurrently with the Little Miami Scenic Trail through the center of the village. This prime location makes Morrow an inviting and accessible destination for trail users.
