This first part of this trip lies in northeastern Ohio where you'll pass by pretty dairy farms along mostly level terrain. Soon however the terrain changes to some nice hills and valleys formed by the many rivers/creaks/lakes in the area. The woods become more lush and green and when you combine the beauty of spring or fall foliage, you've got a great scenic drive here meandering its way to southeastern Ohio and not far from the Ohio river. The roads can get quite curvy too! Overall a very nice scenic drive that becomes great if you time your trip with the spring or fall seasons.
Towns/Cities You'll Pass By/Through
This trip is a string of small towns but there are plenty of them to get gas or food at along the way.
Attractions & Points-of-Interests Along the Way
I really didn't take in too many stops when I went but there certainly were stops to be made along the way if you wanted to take a break and take in some of the small town sites. I know there was camping along the way and at least one state park.

Comments: I'll be the first to rate my route. I gave it a 5 because it really is an outstanding run as it takes in great scenery while offering some fun roads to drive at the same time!

Attraction or Point-of-Interest recommendation: We took RT7 from Youngstown south along the Ohio River stopping at the Moundsville Haunted Prison in West Virginia. You've got to do the tour of the prison! We then continued South on RT7 to Powhatten and took 148 over to Armstrong Hills and picked up RT9 and road it all the way into Salem. Great ride.
