Beautiful ride through woodlands and farmland. The crushed stone can be a little tricky in spots where it is slightly piled up and a couple of gravelly spots. There are a few small hills and a short ride alongside busy Forked River Road. I would like to go again during peak foliage.
I enjoyed the trail but my dog, not so much. This trail has lots of ticks so be careful and make sure to do physical checks before heading home. My dog is on flea and tick meds and these ticks did not care. They were all over me and my dog. I would suggest to stick to the main gravel road if you want to avoid all that. Other than that, Lots of nature is incorporated into it. You will see all types of birds, turtles, and bunnies through the trail as well.
I started in bristol and made it to point pleasant so far. I've seen stuff I have never seen. I love riding this trail.
The bikeway is used as a pet toilet for developments that run alongside, very few bother to clean up after their pet, disgusting. Bring a club with you to fight off aggressive, untrained dogs too.
The asphalt surface is dangerously uneven from tree roots pushing thru. The debris hasn't been cleaned off in years, so you don't know what under the dead leaves and pine needles.
Watch out for wild motorcycle riders, ebikes, and 4 wheelers roaring by. Crossing streets along the path can be deadly. Most cars fly into the intersection without being aware!
I now ride in the street where its safer!
Some riders do not announce themselves while passing us slower riders - witnessed between Valley Forge and Norristown on 7/22/2025. And often see riders going way too fast in congested areas, one rider yelling at other riders as though he owns the trail, not slowing down. There is a speed limit of 15 miles per hour and often riders are going 25+ MPH. This is not a speedway but rather a trail for enjoyment, for walkers, bikers, in-line skaters, and NOT for an accident waiting to happen!!! If someone is training or going for speed, find a roadway that is more appropriate.
I connected this ride to the Cape May Loop and it was a fantastic way to get in some good miles in the morning hours. I rented a Trek Domane from the Surf & Buggy Center. The bike was great and they delivered it and picked it up. If you are looking to get some good training in during your stay this is the way to do it.
I rode this trail starting in toms River with my ultimate destination being southern Long Beach Island. This is really more two trails as the first section ends and you need to ride south on route nine for a stretch and pick up the trailhead again. There are many many intersections The total stretch of trail including the route nine portion is about 15 miles and deposits you in Stratford, New Jersey. Easy ride to Long Beach Island although getting on the boulevard is not really bicycle friendly.
Nice ride from Crystal lake park to the Delaware River. The on-road segment has a sidewalk which we used for safety, although not a lot of traffic. Restrooms at Crystal lake park. . Water was very rusty !!
Good ride some rocky and sand patches. Few roads to crossover. Plenty of benches to rest
Pedaled from Kernsville Dam to just south of Auburn, 6 miles one way. Really nice section of trail. The new bridge over the river between Stony Creek trailhead and Auburn is open. Didn’t have time to pedal all the way to Auburn, had to turn back.
