This small display has a short write up and a few pictures going over the history and importance of Baddow Pass.

Mount Vernon, named after George Washington's famous estate, is a charming small town full of historic buildings. The Woodward Opera House is perhaps the most famous of all, as it is the oldest such Opera House in the USA. Along with the beautiful buildings and parks you'll find plenty of restaurants, shops, and accommodations that invite you to stay a while.

Take a moment at the trailhead to top up your water and have a look at the historic locomotives.

The historic stone arch was built in 1874 as a bridge over the old Cleveland, Mt. Vernon, and Delaware Railroad line. If you look closely you can see the signatures left by the masons who shaped the stones and built the bridge.

This 370-foot covered bridge began as a railroad bridge in the 1920s. It wasn't covered until 1998, at which point it became the second longest covered bridge in Ohio, and the third longest in the USA.

The Heart of Ohio Trail crosses US 36 about 2 miles northeast of Centerburg, where a monument marks the highest point on the trail at 1,285 feet—also the highest point along the entire Ohio to Erie Trail. The monument, shaped as an obelisk that marks this point, is about 5 feet high. This 15.7-mile trail starts in Mount Vernon and heads southwest through Mount Liberty and Centerburg, ending at Huffman Road. For much of its route, the trail runs parallel to US-36 between Mount Vernon and Sunbury.

There is a trailhead here with Porty potty.

The Holmes County Trail is a 23-mile paved trail that travels through Ohio's Amish country. This path was the first path in the country designed to accommodate Amish buggies.
