While in the area we stopped at this trail. Parked at the only parking lot, on Wexford Bayne Road, and headed South. Surface was crushed stone and about 8 feet wide. Very nice for walking or small children bicycling. We walked this trails entire length and back. Just beyond where the limestone ends is a culvert and large deep creek so you can't go any farther and there isn't anything ahead anyhow. This trail is surrounded by private property on each side, some business on the one side and residential homes on the other side. About 1/4 of a mile into the trail is the Rachel Carson hiking trail. It goes up the the chamber of commerce building.
PA-Cumberland 5/2023. Loved this trail with lots of places to camp, a winding and entertaining trail, views of the river, tunnels, small towns along the way. I particularly liked Frostburg and camped two nights. The switchbacks up to town aren't as miserable as some describe and the view is rewarding. The Toasted Goat in Hotel Gunter is an old hotel worth a walk around and a meal. Check out the basement holding cell and speakeasy.
The trail is mostly paved except for the Wv part and the end in pa Multiple parking areas. The trail is remote on the Wv side and a 16 mile up hill climb. Then down hill. The trail is not shaded
This trail is great for walking not riding. Only 2 miles but you get two tunnels. The old rail line has 4 tunnels going to wheeling wv
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.
While in the area we checked out this trail. It's a nice place for walking/running. No pets, bikes, roller blades, etc. Very handy for those who live in or around Oakmont. There are no designated parking lots so park wherever you can find a spot along Allegheny River Blvd. Good luck navigating through the borough of Oakmont as it seems every turn is right turn only and the traffic lights take forever. Worth it though if you end up at Oakmont Bakery, 2 blocks from the trail!
the trail does not go that far they are trying to claim land that is not theirs there is private property after the second tunnel that they haven't owned just are claiming they do
When other bike trails are soggy or mushy is go on this one. This is my go to bike trail. Only some of it is paved if you are not on the rode. It’s mostly asphalt and not completely flat.
A decent trail. I've run on it multiple times before as well as biked., relatively safe. Never went beyond the busy street but it's quiet. Decent location as I grew up in that area.
Not only does the nice looking pump with all the tools at the parking not work, it let the air out of my bike tire. It was useable when I arrived, should not have trusted it. No ride today.
Great parking, smooth packed crushed limestone. Nice views of the river and golf course. Still some fall color but fading and falling fast. Only reason for 4 stars is the only restroom was out of service.
