Sandy Valley Trail
Sandy Valley Trail offers a flat, grassy hiking trail that is wheelchair accessible and dog-friendly. The trail is good for kids and provides an opportunity to see local wildlife like deer, chipmunks, and bald eagles. However, the trail suffers from litter issues and is located near residential areas, which may detract from the peace and natural feel. Caution is advised when crossing roads due to local traffic behavior.

Great scenic trail but I wouldn’t go there in the summer. A lot of horse flies and deer tics
Great little trail. Glad I found it.
Flat and fairly maintained grass trail. Easy. Lots of deer, chipmunks and a Bald Eagle to see.
Trail full of trash literally piles on the hills as if you are in a junk yard with broken glass all over. Also you are basically in people’s back yards the whole time not very peaceful. Would not recommend it to anyone.
The trail is littered with trash, literally. It looks like people just throw stuff out the back of their homes and down the hill. I know it’s not anything Stark Parks did wrong and more Waynesburg clearly doesn’t appreciate their own slice of nature as much as other parts of the county, it just still detracts from the experience quite a lot.
However if you’re in the area and need an uninterrupted stretch of trail for a run I’m sure it would be great for that, although be careful still because drivers show a bigger disregard for pedestrians than most other trails I’ve hiked/walked/ran that crossed roads.
