About

  • Whether you are a runner, walker, or cyclist, the Great Miami River Trail (GMRT) has something for you! The trail follows the Great Miami Riverway, which is comprised of the Great Miami, Mad and Stillwater river systems and is a recognized National Water Trail. The GMRT is planned to run for approximately 86 miles from the City of Piqua in northern Miami County to the City of Fairfield in southern Butler County. In 2023, MetroParks of Butler County was awarded $3.8 million in American Rescue Plan Act and OKI funding to complete the park district's 4.5 miles of remaining GMRT gaps in Fairfield, Liberty and Lemon Townships. Trail construction is expected to be completed between 2026-2028.
  • While on the trail in Butler County, there are opportunities to explore the trail's neighboring communities, take in breathtaking river vistas and enjoy the outdoors. MetroParks' southern trail, beginning at Timberhill MetroPark includes access to shelters, restrooms, drinking fountains, and playgrounds. MetroParks' northern trailheads in Trenton and the City of Middletown offer multiple points of access to the GMRT. Flush restrooms, drinking fountains and a bike repair station are located at River Center at Bicentennial Commons.
