The Little Miami Scenic Trail undergoes a lot of changes during the year, both manmade and natural—from construction projects that maintain the trail’s functionality to the natural seasonal changes along the river that make the trail so beautiful. With the recent installation of trail-user-driven, time lapse photo stations, now you can begin to follow these transitions over the year.
New Grandin Rd. Trail Access
After almost two years of closure, the trail is now open at Grandin Rd. (Cartridge Factory, mm 35.3). The $22 million King Ave. Bridge replacement project brings many improvements to the trail and surrounding area.
