Tacony Creek Trail

Did I get the wrong trail?

October, 2024 by btrue2breal

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!

Plainfield Township Recreation Trail

We love the view across the entire trail ;however, it was so bumpy with many parts of the asphalt missing or pushed up from weeds, it took away from the ride.

Karl Stirner Arts Trail

Linear Art Gallery

September, 2024 by jmcginnis12@gmail.com

While profiling the Lehigh Valley trails over the past year, I've noticed that several of them have a particular theme. The Ironton Rail Trail prominently highlights the cement and iron industries that were served by the old RR by taking users past the ruins of several mills and preserving numerous pieces of infrastructure and memorabilia from the RR itself. The D&L Trail, meanwhile, focuses on the role water transportation played in the region's economies as it winds its way past numerous locks and historic buildings that once served the Lehigh and Delaware canals.
Named in honor of a German immigrant who moved to Easton and became a renowned artist, the Karl Stirner Arts Trail celebrates the thriving community he established in the city. The 2.4 mile long trail follows the banks of Bushkill Creek from N. 13th Street to the south end of Lafayette College campus, where it extends into downtown Easton via a concurrency along 3rd Street. Cyclists will appreciate the trail's smooth, asphalt surface, though the shorter, woodchip and earthen nature trail that branches off at about midpoint and passes beneath an abandoned RR bridge is also worth checking out. Caution should also be used on the eastern half of the trail, which mostly follows on-street concurrencies with Bushkill Drive and 3rd Street.
However, the trail is most notable for the numerous sculptures, murals and paintings that line its route. Although several of these works were created by local artists, some came from as far away as California, and one, a gate near the Blue Bridge over Bushkill Creek, was constructed by Stirner himself prior to his death in 2016. Several pieces of infrastructure, including an electrical box and guard fences lining the trail, are also artistically decorated, while the Witness Tree, a giant American Sycamore situated along the trail near the Blue Bridge that has been dated to 1757, is celebrated as a natural work of art. It's also common to see outdoor art classes being conducted. Although the trail, which follows an old RR grade, is level and bicycle friendly, I recommend doing it on foot in order to fully appreciate all it has to offer. Easton's Linear Art Gallery is a fitting tribute to the legacy of one of the region's most influential residents in recent history.

United States Avenue Trail

Enjoyable for sure

September, 2024 by jennifer279

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.

Ben Cardin C&D Canal Recreational Trail

Perfect first trail ride for our new bikes. We went a little further on the trail to do 2.9 miles both ways. The single hill is a nice touch for the exercise. View of the water was a nice touch as well for scenery.

Schuylkill River West Trail

Little more income than what we like in such a short distance. Not much to see along the route did not see river until close to 422.

Schuylkill River Trail

Fantastic Trail!!

My husband and I use this trail a lot with our electric bikes. Well maintained but I do have concerns about some of the shallow rooted trees that must be trimmed and/or removed. Amy Marotta

Gloucester Township Health and Fitness Trail (aka Blackwood Railroad Trail)

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.

D&L Trail

D&L trail between Jim Thorpe & Weissport

September, 2024 by m9xg8p9csd

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.

Doylestown Bike and Hike Trails

Doylestown trail

Way too confusing if you are not from the area- the map does help very much.

Saucon Rail Trail

As I walker I love the trail but…

September, 2024 by cmmurphy555

I love this trail. My regular walks have restored my mobility and I get to enjoy nature, well mostly. Sundays are the worst time to be on this trail as a walker. Packs of bikers pass simultaneously on the left and right with no warning. They act like anyone but them is a nuisance. Very sad.

Perkiomen Trail

Much Improved

September, 2024 by zave smith

It has been around five years since I last rode on the Perkiomen Trail. My memory of it is lots of ruts, pot holes, and loose gravel around the Collegeville area. Today we rode from Oaks to Central Perkiomen Valley Park and was pleasantly surprised by how much the trail bed has been improved. There are even nice crossing lights on the major roads. A big thanks to whoever was behind these improvements.
