Itinerary description

Five Mile Trail is located in Anderson Township, Ohio (east of Cincinnati). The trail is in a residential area and passes along public buildings and retail space but much of the trail has a rural feel. The trail is paved and restrooms and car parking are available at the two trailheads. A hawk was seen during this winter trek, as well as several bluebirds and cardinals.

Approximately 2.5 miles from South Trailhead to North Trailhead.
