Galena Ride
Distance: 12.7
Elevation gain: 222
Difficulty: Easy
New riders will appreciate this simple flat route that starts and finishes at Trek Bicycle Westerville. The roads are quiet and scenic. There’s eight miles of the car-free Genoa Trail. There’s the stunningly beautiful Char-Mar Ridge Park and the highly Instagram-able Hoover Reservoir. And then there’s the diminutive historic mill town of Galena where you can stop for lunch at the cozy Galena Diner (see Where to stop) or Mudflats Bar and Grill if you want to enjoy a frosty pint with your meal.
