## About

Running through the historic heart of downtown Loveland, the Little Miami Scenic Trail is one of the nation's premier paved rail-trails. Thanksgiving week is a cherished time for regional families to bundle up for a holiday bike ride, scooter cruise, or stroller walk along the scenic banks of the Little Miami State and National Scenic River. The trail is completely paved, flat, and car-free, making it exceptionally safe for children of all riding abilities. Right beside the trail in historic Loveland, families can visit Nisbet Park, featuring an expansive playground, amphitheater, picnic gazebos, and river overlooks. Charming trailside bakeries and cafes offer hot chocolate, warm cider, and fresh pastries after your outdoor adventure.

Family Experience & Accessibility:
• Stroller Accessibility: Outstanding flat, asphalt-paved rail-trail with wide clearance, zero vehicular crossings for long stretches, and smooth curb cuts throughout downtown Loveland.
• Nursing & Rest Spots: Heated, modern municipal restrooms with diaper changing facilities are available at Nisbet Park and the Loveland Station public plaza.
• Age Suitability: All ages. Perfect for infants in jogging strollers, toddlers on balance bikes, school kids on bicycles, and walking grandparents.
• Sensory Tips: Peaceful wooded river corridor with rustling golden foliage and soothing river currents. Charming historic depot district offers festive holiday window displays without overwhelming noise.
