Enola Low Grade Trail

nice trail

July, 2026 by aldo_desalvo

2 nice bridges and lots of rest areas. There is a lot of chalk that comes up from the trail I just did it on a 100 degree day. That was a mistake. It looks like they added new parking spots. I recommend it

Warwick to Ephrata Rail Trail

Nice trail

June, 2026 by adsaxs

Parked at the parking lot of the Warwick Twp Municipal Bldg in Lititz which is MM4 and cycled to the end at Ephrata. There is a bikeshare station in the parking lot, if needed.

The trail surface is a mix of crushed stone/grave and paved and is well-maintained. The trail ends unceremoniously at Ephrata.

On the way back, we stopped at BBQ restaurant along the trail just outside of Ephrata which I would recommend.

I would recommend riding this trail.

Broadneck Peninsula Trail

Broadneck Peninsula Trail

The Broadneck Peninsula Trail now extends from Anne Arundel Community College to Sandy Point State Park Headquarters for a total of 7.5 miles or 15 miles round trip. Parking is available at Broadneck park parking lots and the Cape Saint Claire Park parking lot. Great ride!

Isaac Branch Greenway Trail

Peaceful

June, 2026 by donutdiva05

Great paved trail which is mostly shaded. It starts around the Microtell Hotel and ends up at the DMV. I haven't seen any bikers but often there are walkers and joggers.

Warwick to Ephrata Rail Trail

pleasant ride, but ...

June, 2026 by joelkring

This trail is a very pleasant ride, however, riders should be aware that there are no restrictions as far a e-bikes are concerned. I've seen electric bikes that are little less than electric motorcycles. Expect to see electric scooters, but don't expect them to announce themselves before passing. I see many young mothers with their children, either in strollers or on bikes. Its just a matter of time before a fast moving e-bike and a child collide.

Struble Trail

great short trail

June, 2026 by dalderfer

Very pretty, flat trail. Suggest parking in the lot in Downingtown and following the trail then connecting to the Uwchlan Trail and back. Eagles nest was seen here-multiple photographers out taking photos. Nice memorial site at the beginning-nice place to sit and reflect with beautiful trees. Very pleasant trail.

Hanover Trolley Trail

Trail is expanded!!

June, 2026 by kcurlen

Please update the Hanover Trolley Trail map. The new section is just beautiful!

Kent Island South Trail

Kent Island South

May, 2026 by carrollb

I try to ride this trail 2-3 times a year. Had the trail to myself today except for a few people walking. The first 2 miles and the last 1 mile have a lot of raised places from the tree roots. Many places the asphalt is pushed up 2-3 inches. You have to keep your eyes on the asphalt in order to stand on the pedals or your back will be jarred really bad. At one point I heard a metal sound and after stopping found I did not have my rear bag fully zippered closed. The sound I heard was a tool being tossed out of my bag. This was a nice trail and it's a shame they don't mill down the raised places. Not sure if I will ride it again.

Smyrna-Clayton Bike Path

Nice Little Trail

May, 2026 by keithdel555

Easy to find once you arrive near the schools. It's a wonderful connector path for local residents to ride to the beautiful Smyrna school campus.

Capital City Trail

Trail non existent

May, 2026 by keithdel555

Mostly bike lanes along busy roads. The city is beautiful but I was disappointed that I could not find a trail along the water and lake. I even asked a State Trooper and they said that they were not aware of an actual trail.

Capital City Trail

where is the trail?

May, 2026 by keithdel555

I went down to Dover and followed the Google map and the trails map and could not find an actual trail. It appears that the trail is nothing but bike lanes on main roads. I asked a state trooper where the Jones River Trail was where there were signs pointing, and she had no idea what the Jones river was. Was very disappointed looking for the trails, but Dover is a beautiful town, especially in the legislative district.
