As a visiting mid-westerner, this was my first time cycling alone in this area, so I appreciated how well used this trail was, mid-afternoon, late August. Heavily shaded most of the miles I covered between Pine Rd. and Bustleton Ave. Very winding and sometimes hilly, made me hug the right, so as not to run someone down on a blind curve. I always signaled my approach, but strolling pedestrians aren't too good about keeping to the right. Beautiful scenery: huge old trees, birds, squirrels, chipmunks, rocky Pennypack Creek, picturesque bridges.

Recently discovered this one. Beautiful ride, and enjoyable terrain.

" Pennypack is a great jogging/biking trail. West of the boulevard is safer than east of the blvd. Whatever direction you go, it's fun. Philly receives heavy criticism for many things, but give the city a lot of credit for Pennypack."
