Description:
The Lawrence Hopewell Trail currently runs for nearly 12 miles on public and private lands in Lawrence and Hopewell townships, Mercer County, New Jersey. The bicycle and pedestrian recreational trail will actually be a loop when completed and provides a valuable transportation corridor for the communities it serves.

The trail links business districts, parks, schools, historic villages, playing fields and woodlands and uses existing streets. At the Lawrence Township end, the trail links to the Delware and Raritan Canal State Park Trail. The LHT is broken into segments, each with its own unique historic and natural features. The open sections lie mainly on the west side of the loop, with one small open section on the east side of the loop. You can read more about them on the LHT website (link to the right under "Related Links").

A little more than 8 additional miles of trail are expected to be completed by 2012.
