Tour de CROWN

ROUTE OPTIONS

The Tour de CROWN has something for everyone! No matter which route you choose, you’ll have a great time exploring the trails.

The Great Parks Full CROWN (35.2 mi) — 8:00 AM Departure
Find your wild on this 35.2-mile ride through parks, neighborhoods, bikeways, and trail segments that make up the vision for the CROWN—a more connected Cincinnati, powered by Great Parks of Hamilton County. This route offers a front-row seat to the progress already made and the work still ahead, with several on-road sections where trails are still under development.

New this year: we’ll traverse the West Side using Spring Grove Avenue instead of Beekman Street. We look forward to returning to Beekman next year, after a Complete Streets makeover improves conditions for people walking, biking, rolling, and driving.

The Fifty West Half CROWN (17.5 mi) — 9:00 AM Departure
Expand your range and explore parts of the CROWN you may have never seen before. This ride takes you along some of the most well-loved trails in the region, including the Little Miami Scenic Trail, Lunken Airport Loop, Delta Avenue Bikeway, Wasson Way, and Murray Path. The Half CROWN route primarily follows trails and bikeways, but there are some on-road sections where the CROWN is still in progress.

New in 2025: Trail advocacy at its finest—working across multiple jurisdictions to connect neighbors and build a stronger regional trail network.
One of the highlights of this year’s Full and Half CROWN rides is the route through the Village of Mariemont, where riders will get a first look at the new trail section through the historic Trolley Park—a key piece of what’s coming next. In the near future, this connection will allow people to ride from the Murray Path, through Mariemont, cross US 50 at Pokahantas, and seamlessly continue on a new trail leading back to Fifty West Brewing Company and the Little Miami Scenic Trail.

Thanks to our partners at Columbia Township and the Village of Mariemont, we’ll be able to close a lane of US 50/Wooster Pike during the event, making the final stretch of your ride safe, welcoming, and memorable. And in just a few years, that stretch will be trail—not traffic.

Tour de CROWN Beechmont Connector Ride (8.5 mi) — 9:30 AM Departure
Whether you’re new to biking, riding with family, or simply savoring the ride, this scenic route along the Little Miami Scenic Trail offers a welcoming way to experience the CROWN. You’ll pedal to the Beechmont Bridge Connector—a key link made possible by Great Parks—then cruise back to the Columbia Township Finish Line at Fifty West Brewing Company, where the Tour de CROWN Expo will be buzzing with live music, food, drinks, and celebration.

TOUR DE CROWN EXPO
After completing their rides, registered riders and volunteers can look forward to a well-earned reward: a complimentary beverage (beer, soda, or milkshake), a delicious burger from Fifty West Brewing Company, and the lively Tour de CROWN Expo!

The Tour de CROWN Expo is a free, family-friendly celebration of trails, biking, and community—open to the public and welcoming to trail lovers of all ages. We’re especially excited to welcome MADQUEEN to the stage for a high-energy set featuring bike-and trail-themed covers and some fun, family-friendly rock-n-roll flair.

Whether you come to ride, cheer, learn, or lounge, the Expo is the perfect place to connect with others, learn about local trail projects, and soak up the energy of the Tour de CROWN.
