Highly recommend this beautiful and well kept trail. Beautiful to ride along the trees and over the 2 epic ohiopyle bridges.
When Connellsville to Point Marion is completed, the Sheepskin Trail should be fantastic, but for now the pieces are nice but short and incomplete - just a few miles each. Fayette County should pick up the pace and finish building this trail before we're all too old to bike them!
There are also pieces near Dunbar and Uniontown, but the pieces I biked most recently were around Point Marion. From the WV-PA border there is trail 1.5 miles north along the Monongahela River to Point Marion - this segment has existed in some form for decades, but I think it got a nice surface only in 2018. The newer sections (opened in 2022?) parallel Cheat River and Nilan Rd. There is a 1.2 mile long section starting at the north end of the Route 119 bridge over the Cheat River, continuing eastward. Then a gap of several hundred feet at the little community of Hope Hollow. Then if you go up a slope from Nilan Rd you can get onto another segment of trail, 1 mile long, that continues eastward toward the little community of Lake Lynn, stopping just before the coke ovens. The surface of these trails is crushed limestone. A new trail bridge is planned for construction by 2027 in Hope Hollow: https://www.pa.gov/agencies/penndot/projects-near-you/district-12-projects/sheepskin-trail-nilan-bridge
We parked at the end of Astral road, though not a designated trailhead, there is a small parking lot for fisherman. This is approx 4.3 miles South of Franklin. A good bit of snow and ice still on the trail. Big ice chunks floating down the Allegheny (River). Sandy Creek jammed up with ice at the Belmar Bridge.
February 2026 hike. A good 6" of snow on the ground. Shenango River frozen due to multiple weeks of below freezing temperatures.
Beautiful sunny but cold Winter Day to get out and enjoy the trail. A good 8" of snow covering the trail. We parked in the small lot out on Trout Island Road and walked to the end and back.
February, 2026 we parked at the Belmar Bridge and went on a short walk. The parking lot at Belmar was somewhat plowed but luckily we had 4-WD otherwise I feel we would have been beached. Trail has very deep at least a foot of snow on it. Good conditions for snowshoeing. Surprisingly the Allegheny River was not frozen even though temps hadn't been above freezing for nearly 3 weeks. A nice walk out on the bridge.
Tunnel is closed. I ventured over the top and it's tough
as of Nov-25 the National Tunnel is closed. See here for more details: https://www.observer-reporter.com/news/local-news/2025/nov/25/national-tunnel-on-montour-trail-closed-due-to-deteriorating-ceiling/
Really nice views, very scenic at parts, and get to ride by some cool landmarks
