The Coyote Run Trail at Highbanks Metro Park in Lewis Center, Ohio is a moderate 3.4 mile easy out-and-back trail that goes through woods and fields. The trail starts off at the nature center on a spur trail that leads into the woods, but quickly opens into fields. The trail has two main loops and one small loop on the northern side. The largest loop can be found just over a half mile from the trail head, while the other is located on the far west side. This trail is reserved for cross-country skiing during the winter when conditions are suitable.

This trail's main feature is the Adena Mound - located around mile 0.65 - a burial mound that was constructed by a Native American tribe of the Adena culture. The Adena culture existed from approximately 500BCE to 100AD.

Great trail, woods, and open fields. Unimproved with dirt, and grass surfaces. The burial mound is very solemn yet beautiful and peaceful location.

Nice trail that connects to the Dripping Rock trail (even though it doesn’t appear to on the park map). The Highbanks Metropark Mound 1 (aka Adena Indian mound, North Mound, Muma Mound) is in a meadow adjacent to the trail. There is a mowed path to the top. Beautiful view of the Mound and meadow.

Before you leave...

MyHikes is an indie web platform aimed to make exploring public trails easier for everyone. The site has no investors and is owned and operated by one person, Dave Miller (Founder & Admin). As the Founder, main contributor, and doer-of-all-things for MyHikes, I share my trips with over-detailed write-ups for fun on a volunteer basis and I believe that public trail information should be available to everyone.

It takes a lot of time 🕦, money 💰, and effort (including espresso shots ☕) to run MyHikes, including hiking , mapping , writing , and publishing new trails with high-quality content... along with building new features, moderating, site maintainance, and app development for iOS and Android . I simply ask that if you find MyHikes' trail guides helpful to please consider becoming a Supporter to help keep the site, iOS, and Android apps available to everyone.

Supporters unlock website and in-app perks with a one-time payment of $25 (you renew) 😎👍. Or you can simply make a Donation of your choice without a MyHikes user account. Otherwise, telling your friends about MyHikes is the next-best thing - both quick and free 🎉

Thanks for visiting MyHikes and have a great hike!️
