Monroe Township Bike Path

Nice paved ride

May, 2026 by littleredheadsmom

We love this trail. Almost 13 miles round trip.

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.

Northwest Lancaster County River Trail

great!

May, 2026 by nature.lover.3

First time with my new bike! It was a cool morning so hardly anyone out….and then the afternoon came. Kids. Dogs. Ugh. But all good. It was a super fun ride. In the beginning some of the asphalt buckles or tree roots lifting it up so you will feel the bumps

Cynwyd Heritage Trail

Trail extended to Bala Station at City Avenue

April, 2026 by walking5

I rode this trail for the first time today (April 24, 2026). Contrary to the current map the trail does extend from the Cynwyd Station to the Bala Station at City Avenue. The extension looks quite new.

Union Canal Trail

misinformation in the trail info leads to wasted time

March, 2026 by megan.a.lemon

0 stars if I could. Nowhere in the information anywhere on here does it say pets aren’t allowed, so I thought this would be a nice shady walk for my dog on a sunny day only to drive all the way there and see no pets signs everywhere. Waste of time and gas.

202 Parkway Trail

Nice trail to log some miles but fyi there's no cover from the sun and worse yet not place to sit down ie: parkbench etc

Perkiomen Trail

The perk

December, 2025 by twinbonz5

The hardest part is making it over springmount. I love the trail. I do it often. Made the 45 miles.

Enola Low Grade Trail

favorite trail

November, 2025 by kay.deitz

I start at Red Hill Road parking lot in Pequa and do the 20 mile round trip to Turkey Hill and back, it is flat, no potholes or surprises and glorious. Two bridges, 5 miles each way along the river, often a train, many groups of rock climbers on the weekend. Just glorious. If you want to add miles, going west is level and wooded. Some might say boring however I find it cool, refreshing and safe. My favorite trail!

Torrey C. Brown Rail Trail

very tough ride due to storm damage July ‘25

November, 2025 by kay.deitz

A lot of trail damage from storms in July 2025 makes for a very rough ride. Rough hard gravel, very bumpy ride. Could be dangerous if riding fast. My friends and I have moved to the Pa Heritage Rail Trail. NCR is more beautiful though rough. Would love to know if/when trail damage will be smoothed out. Got to be a budget for repair
