The highest point on the North Country Trail in Ohio is on Buffalo Road, NW of Hanover of Columbiana County.  At 1,308ft above sea level, it is the 2nd highest point on trails covered by the Ohio Transit Hiker's Resource and is on the NCT Ohio's east independent arm according to the NCTA's 2003 edition of the OH-101 map.  I don't know it's low point yet, but I can say that it's has to be Buckeye Trail concurrent.  Right now, the low point for the West Union Section (August 2012 edition map & guide) of the Buckeye Trail at 503ft above sea level is the likely candidate.

The highest point for the American Discovery Trail in Ohio & Kentucky occurs when it is concurrent with the Shawnee Section (December 2012 edition map & guide) of the Buckeye Trail near Point 25, 1,264ft above sea level.  Their lowest point is at 456ft above sea level and it occurs on it's west independent arm.

ADT's mapping is based on their GPX data for Ohio & Kentucky and does not come with an edition date at this time.

  1. North Country Trail - Ohio's low point is 50ft above sea level at the bridge for the East Fork Little Miami River on the Williamsburg Section - Buckeye Trail.

    I also need to make a correction... West Union Section's low point is at 507'.

  2. I was just sorting through my comments when I saw an error. It's impossible that there's a low point of 50ft in Ohio.
