The Bedford section begins at a kiosk in the Brecksville Reservation, Cleveland Metro Parks. This kiosk marks the beginning of the Bedford and Akron Sections and the end of the Medina Section. The Bedford Section heads northeast, while the Akron Section heads south and Medina heads west. This junction marks the spot where the Buckeye Trail was formally completed, linking the four corners of Ohio. Shortly, the trail crosses the Cuyahoga River on a wrought iron bridge, and continues off-road through various parklands. Further on, the trail uses a Rail-Trail for several miles.  In the northern half of this section, the trail finds itself more and more on roads. The Bedford Section ends at Headlands Beach State Park on Lake Erie, the BT's Northern Terminus, where it meets the Burton Section from the south.
