The Western Reserve Greenway Trail (WRGT) is a paved trail that runs through Ashtabula County and extends into Trumbull County. The trail receives no public funds and is up kept by grants and donations only. It is totally maintained by volunteers so please keep the trail beautiful and as always CITO. In Ashtabula County, a Park Ranger patrols the trail, along with a volunteer bike patrol.
There are many bridges and sites to see. Benches are located in various places along the trail, including a 'Trackable' bench near the Lampson Rd staging area in Austinburg.
The WRGT GeoTrail is placed by the "Western Reserve Geocachers" and utilizes caches placed in Ashtabula County only. Souvenier Coins will be awarded on a 1st come, 1st serve basis. In order to earn the Geocoin you must complete the entire 26 miles of trail within Ashtabula County and write down 2 code words from each mile of trail into your passport.
Each mile has 3 or 4 code words with the words located on lids and/or logs. Once you have at least 2 words from each mile, you can receive your coin from the ACC&VB on Austinburg Rd (at GC2ZNZW) or at Shannons Mini Mart on RT 307 in Austinburg, once the coins are available.
Any questions, please click on the link at the top of any of the WRGT cache pages to message one of the Western Reserve Geocachers.
