The Lebanon Countryside Trail is a rail trail in Ohio.

Largely used as a bicycle trail, it links the city of Lebanon, Ohio to the Little Miami Scenic Trail at Middletown Junction as well as to the Mason Lebanon Bike Connector as part of the Miami-2-Miami[1] trail system. The trail currently extends from Miller Road at the northern most point to the Little Miami Scenic Trail at the Southernmost point.

The trail as of November 2023 is 10.2 miles (16.4 km) long. The trail opened in late 2005 and has been modified/extended multiple times in recent years (2019,[2] 2021, 2022), and will be further modified in 2024 and 2025.[3] In addition to the main trail, a direct connection to the Premier Health Mountain Bike Park exists to cross SR48.[4][dead link] Current planned improvements include connecting the trail directly to downtown, improving the shared use path on N. Broadway, and completing a loop around Lebanon OH through Bowman Park.
