Japanese knotweed spreading along the Hockhocking Adena Bikeway
was recorded three times in the past 30 days at locations along the Hockhocking Adena Bikeway in Athens County (August 25, September 1, and September 9, 2026).1 This invasive plant spreads by rhizome and seed, forming dense monocultures that displace native vegetation.1 Ongoing monitoring and control efforts are needed to prevent expansion.1
