Medina County Chapter Ohio Horseman’s Council

About Us

We are Cuyahoga Valley Trail Riders!

Medina County Chapter repairs, builds and maintains the horse trails in the beautiful Cuyahoga Valley National Park in Peninsula, Ohio. We have work/ride weekends which means you may come to primitive camp with your horse in what we call Robinson Field located on Akron/Peninsula Rd. just South of Peninsula. The trails take a lot of work; we build bridges, clear and build trails, and do whatever it takes to maintain this wonderful place to ride. We take pride in our work with the National Park’s personnel and the results are appreciated by all who ride here. Members from around the state say we have some of the finest trails of anywhere they have ridden. Medina OHC has hosted one of the state rides in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park, but we are on a hiatus until a permanent camping arrangement can be made in the park. We also have monthly rides with other chapters as well as a yearly banquet.

Feel free to contact us for information about upcoming rides and meetings! Happy trails from Medina OHC!

New Monthly Meeting Location for Winter months

We will be meeting at the Hinckley Township Hall for the months of March through May (no meetings in January or February.) The hall is located at the corner of Rt 303 and Rt 94. Lots of parking behind the building. In June we will be back at Robinson Field in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Join us for our June ice cream social or one of our outdoor programs.

March 28, 2022 – Attention!! Our state ride is cancelled for 2022!

Our issues as you may remember started with the inability to camp in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. This means everyone; hikers, horsemen, everybody. We thought we had an alternate location but the distance to the park trail and getting across a problematic piece of trail once you got there and not seeing a resolution in the near future caused us to rethink this option. We hope to have a day ride on August 20 with a dinner, auction, etc. Please stay tuned and thanks for your patience.
