The Ernst Trail is a five-mile long recreational trail that was constructed on the abandoned bed of the former Bessemer - Lake Erie Railroad. The completed segment is part of a proposed trail connecting Meadville with Conneaut Lake. As such, the trail is an "out-and-back" one with access near the mid-point of the trail on the Mercer Pike south of Meadville.
