I stumbled into this trail for a possible section hike next spring, something around 2 weeks duration. I wouldn’t have normally thought of Ohio as having “backcountry” but preliminary investigation seems to hint at a surprisingly pretty area to hike in. Does anyone on BPL have experience with this particular section?

watching with interest. looked into the buckeye a little myself but i can tell you hocking hills is amazing and worth the visit regardless. one of my favorite midwest parks. i live about 5hrs from it.
Know nothing of the trail, but spent some time in Hocking Hills years ago. Old growth Hemlocks!
Thanks guys, those positive comments are intriguing. I was shocked to see recently that the Buckeye Trail now has a Guthook app, which triggered some investigating. Plus my father went to college in the nearby area, and it’s within a few hours of home. I might try this one out for a 2 week section hike next spring. If anyone else has some experience in the area, keep the comments coming.
