I love the D&L and ride it often. I’m trying to finish the entire trail and went to complete the northern most section from White Haven to Mountain Top. Unfortunately, about a mile in the amount of downed trees becomes too much (must have been from a storm). I fought through it and walked my bike but it was arduous. Around 4 miles north there was an area with multiple downed trees over the path. It was impassable so I turned around and fought my way back. I’m sad that I’ll have to wait until it’s cleared (hopefully in the spring).
The middle of the trail on Richmond st is on the road shared with cars. Needs a bike path on Richmond st to connect wheatsheaf to Lewis.
This trail continues 8 miles from Alley Pond Park all the way to Flushing Meadows Park, home of the 2024 World Series champion NY Mets! You only have to cross 3 streets for the entire ride. You continue past Cunningham park to peck fields then to Kissena Park, Kissena Corridor Park, then alongside the Queens botanical garden. It’s pretty flat, nicely paved, and you can safely ride it at night. Leave your
I would not recommend. The area wasn’t kept up. Not a lot of nature, at least not that I felt comfortable walking through with my kids. But I found a couple nearby who was doing what looked like excellent car detailing service!
The East River Greenway is under construction. There is no access between 76th and 71st streets. The newly built portion between 71st and 52nd streets is quite nice. The section between 52nd and 37th still needs to be built. Further downtown, the greenway is closed south of 23rd until about the seaport. Hopefully it’ll be ready for next spring.
Recently biked this paved trail then peeled off to explore Blueberry Hill trails. I have a mountain bike with tires able to cruise streets and the gravel--I had some trouble in the deeper sandy areas close to the quarry. I loved exploring back here, as there are paved trails in BH but also the more typical rolling hill wooded trails too. I made it an 11-mile ride as I was also stopping for some geocaches in the Blueberry Hills.
Truly loved this trail we went on a Sunday September, we had our electric bikes it was so much fun. Coming back for sure!
Really poor signage and trail markings
The tunnel is finally asphalt and the barriers are gone. We are finally about to finish the trail on the other side of 42 again. Yay! Let's hope that actually extend it like they plan on doing.
Does anyone know if the trail is open between Jim Thorpe train station & Weissport is open? We are heading there this weekend of 9/13-15/2024. It’s been closed for most of the spring/summer season 2024 for construction. Just curious if we shout just head to the Weissport parking lot. Although the trail between JT & Weissport is a fun ride.
It should be used mostly for walking back and forth. Really good for the kids or folk just learning to ride their bicycle. I used it to practice clipping in and out of my pedals. It's also really neat and clean. Also a lil park as well.
