Billie and I rode the trail (some of it) on June 3rd for the first time. Headed South we got to the blockades at main St. I heard commotion under the overpass. I went and talked to the workers. They told me to ride through as the trail is open, but the horses were not removed but will be shortly. We are riding another section today. This by far, is one of the most interesting and beautiful trails we have been on.
Well maintained and shady in the summer. Pastoral views
My husband and I broke the trail up into 3 segments between May 8th to May 19, 2025 riding our bikes. We started at New Freedom, PA and rode to Walker Road and back. (14.2 miles). The next time we rode from Walker Road to Monkton station and back. (14.2 miles). Then we finished the trail riding from Monkton to Ashland Road and back (14.2 miles). The scenery included beautiful foliage, a winding creek, and various forest creatures. The trail itself is well kept. It is also well traveled with walkers, runners and cyclists.
The overpass at mile marker 11.5 in Seven Valleys over PA Rt 214 is closed and Northbound trail users must descend an embankment next to the Four Springs Winery and ride through town to Church St to pick up the trail again. Southbound riders follow the same detour in reverse.
I rode this for a second time recently. The trail is in great shape. I will they would add the path through the tunnel. Extending the trail over the three bridges would make this the best in the area. Not sure if that is a plan. Hancock is a great town. Very remote in little orleans
Hands-down amazing trail. It’s a nice wooded adventure, especially east of Riverfront Park, and it’s twisty! Not enough to really impede a good ride. I like the twists; they made the trail interesting in ways many rail trails don’t. Highly recommend for riders of all levels.
This is my favorite paved trail. All the bumps and roots are gone since the repaving project was completed in fall 2024. Hancock is the town at about the middle mileage. The western end is quiet through the woods. There are very few road crossings and it's pretty flat grade. Berkeley Springs WV is only 6 miles south of Hancock MD and that's a cute tourist town to visit. There's also a good bike store in Hancock.
Ok section, kind of dull. Agriculture & cows. Found a bit of shade by a grain elevator for lunch. Several washouts filled with tumbleweeds as you get closer to Lind.
This trail is outstanding so far. Still a lot of work to be done, but wow.
The church parking is not open to the public. I parked on Charles St. That said, the trail is in great shape, and there is a trestle bridge leftover from the railroad viewable from the trail. Just note: it’s a climb!
This is a great urban trail. Lots of road-crossings, as you can expect being in the city. Note that the parking listed on the map is private; I had to park on Edgar St. I also found an unlisted expansion to the south.
