Trails rec center in aurora co7/26/2023 Oswego County Trail starting in Central Square and heading East toward Sylvan Beach. Parts of the portion we did today is hillier than most sections it was not difficult for us "intermediate level" bikers, but parts wouldn't be the best for younger children or somebody who hadn't biked in a while. Least favorite was the road portion (or "sidewalk ride") on Hiawatha Blvd as it was very busy. Since we haven't had much rain in the past month, trail conditions were excellent on today's portion. Signs for this portion of the Empire State Trail were quite good otherwise. We were able to go through the portion on the NYS Fairgrounds and noted that this is not open to biking during the colder months (I believe Oct-April 1) it wouldn't be hard to go around, but signage would be helpful on that, too. We did miss a turn heading up the hill to turn off the trail to the parking area so we could cross 690 not sure there was clear signage on that there was going back down. We enjoyed the museum and the newer section that is paved along the west side of Onondaga Lake from the Fair Grounds parking area to the south part of the lake. Today's ride in nice weather was 21 miles round trip to the Camillus Museum from Syracuse. *PLEASE NOTE that the portion from Bridge Street to the Onondaga Creek, Syracuse NEEDS UPDATING on the Trail map, as connecting trail is now available and this isn't reflected in the map.* Today was our 3rd ride (each out and back) on this trail, completing the section from Port Byron to the Inner Harbor in Syracuse.
