If you have researched the GAP at all, you already know this was among the first trails inducted into the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy Hall of Fame. Many riders continue to go back to ride it again. That speaks volumes to the experience of riding this trail. If you are an end-to-end rider, and not a camper, you will need accommodations. I would like to highly recommend Cardinal's Roost B&B in Rockwood, PA. You will not find more amiable hosts than Jennifer and Chris. The accommodations are spotless, comfortable, and tastefully decorated. The breakfast is out of a 5-star restaurant. They have a huge garage to store your bikes with plenty of space to do maintenance if need be. Jennifer and Chris are bicyclists themselves so they understand needs of cyclists. If passing through Rockwood on the GAP or just enjoying the beautiful scenery, you cannot go wrong with Cardinal’s Roost.
We are doing the trail now. It is beautiful with the colors changing. This trail is so well kept, with the surprise statues, just a joy to us and the dog.
We started out at Dilltown and the washout starts at about Wehrum and continues off and on until you almost reach Belsano. From Nanty Glo to Ebensburg, the trail is good.
I will change this if it posts. My first detailed review disappeared and didn't post.
I’m from Ohio and the Ohio side is awful- so I’m not knocking OH ¿But overall decent ride and beautiful scenery! The trains are pretty cool too
I liked this trail. A little rough in spots. Had to take it slow. Views made it worth slowing down for.
I used to frequent this trail for the views. One of the most beautiful Pittsburgh sunrises can be seen from the edge of Washington landings. Well I recently went back and the area just didn’t seem too biker friendly anymore. It seems like the rocks and gravel have tripled. You have to take a very slow and methodical pace to complete this loop. Please be careful when going to Washington Landing
Took the bikes one way then back. Flat and level with one small hill. Good condition with some areas with small gravel.
I wish it was longer!!!! Excellent ride and beautiful ride along the river.
An ABSOLUTELY beautiful trail! We are SO glad we listened to friends and have this a try. Well worth the hour+ drive from Clearfield! We'll be back!!
Came up from Wheeling. We did this trail to the finish as it was only a few miles before the end and turnaround. About half the time on the street. But the town had good signage and what was very impressive was yellow lines on the road! I wish more towns would do that. Older trail and some bumps but I was impressed by the markings. Not very busy on the streets so safe for riding.
