Have a comfort bike with wider tires 24 speeds. There are in most parts of the trail 2 tracks. Mostly unkept so poor for biking. Trail is grass and like I said 2 bike tire tracks. However would be great for hiking.
We really enjoyed riding on the D&L Trail once we were on the trail. We planned to stay in Bethlehem and pick up the trail there. However, we stayed on the south side of the river because by the map, it looked like hotels were closer to the trail from that side. It took us about 3 miles of riding before we could finally connect with the trail. The signage in Bethlehem was terrible. We then rode out to Rieglesville and had a beautiful ride. And then rode back to Bethlehem, and again trying to find how to get across the bridge from the trail was another 3 mile ride. We thought it would be easier coming from the trail but it wasn't. This should be a great marketing tool for the city and we fully expected better signage. We will definitely ride this trail again but won't be staying in Bethlehem.
Today has been a rail trail rail fan dream come true. I rode through the Grand Canyon of Pennsylvania on the D&L rail trail. To top off the beauty of this area I also got to see up close the historic Union Pacific “Big Boy” 4014. She’s been traversing the country commemorating the 250 birthday of our nation. Needless to say I’ve had my bit of heaven on earth today.
Jennifer and I rode the section north of White Haven to Black Diamond Trailhead and then turned around and rode back White Haven on 6/5/2026 for a 21.8-mile ride. If you like to ride thru the woods this section of the trail is a good section for that it is also is a good ride on a hot sunny day, lots of shade. We did not like the parts where there were only 2 dirt paths with grass between them. There is an increase in elevation of approx. 638 feet, to us it was a noticeable grade, it did the return trip more enjoyable. We will ride this section of the trail again.
Rode the trail yesterday from the Tannery to Jim Thorpe. Saw 7 snakes. 4 young rattlesnakes.Lots of ppl with dogs and young kids riding ahead of them. Please keep an eye out. They were in the road and along the side trying to get warm.
It's better from Carbondale to NY. You could park at 1 Morris Ave in Simpson and it is a beautiful Trail clean up to New York state border.
It’s nice, but it’s really short. I hope they do a trail along the railroad tracks to connect Wilkes-Barre to Scranton.
I’ve ridden mostly the most improved section between Uniondale and Simpson. Trail there is in absolutely perfect condition, with a smooth packed cinder surface that is the best I’ve ever ridden. If you want to be able to relax, view the scenery without worrying about the trail surface, this is the easiest section. If you want something a little more challenging, ride the section north of Uniondale. Heading north from Uniondale is improved, but it is bumpier and you need to pay attention a little bit more. North of Ararat looks rougher but great if you like more of a challenge. This trail offers something for everyone. I love it. I can’t wait to get back there this Spring.
Seriously a fun and beautiful toe path trail that puts you in the middle of the Delaware River and the canal..stop in quaint villages ( ie: New Hope, Lambertville) for a bit to eat or stay the night
The trail from Milford start point is on k for a few miles but turns to a rocky narrow trail not suitable for a bike , Start at Conashaugh trail head there is only 1 area where you have to walk down 1 set of stairs and go up another otherwise it get great .I wanted to add although I was able have a good ride on my mountain bike I would not recommend the use of any road bike .
This is a good trail & I would have enjoyed more if it were warmer and I did not ride in gale force winds. Bikers do yourself a favor from Milford grab a bite or drink as you have no food or drink areas until the end unless you ride when Dingmans campsite is open , you may get something there . Proceed 209 S to Conashaugh trail head unload and go south from there you will have about 18 miles to the end.
