If you exit the Riverside Hideaway, looking at the road, left is west to the Reds and Bengals Stadiums, which is approximately 4.5 miles. To the right is east toward many bars and restaurants in the guidebook. Riverbend Music center is just under five miles to the east, however, the bike path branches north before you get that far. https://www.ohiotoerietrail.org/interactive-map/
