It would be a 5 star trail for biking if it was paved. It makes for a very dirty bike.
Overall it’s a nice trail, it’s a little short but is good for beginners.
Started at the trail end near Phoenixville did 11 miles towards Oaks. It was a beautiful day and not many people on trail. Most of the way the views were great and trail was very wide. Some hills but not to bad.
The map isn't really clear where the path picks up from Rockledge Park toward Philly and how long you have to be on roads with cars.
I’ve biked on some of the best trails in Pennsylvania including the Heritage, Buffalo Valley, and Pine Creek but none of them are as nice as the Perkiomen! I started on the trail near Spring Mountain Ski Area which was still open despite it being a 60’s early Spring day. There’s a nice parking area there that is shared by trail users and skiers. If you start there, be prepared for a monster sized hill about a half mile up the trail, besides that it’s challenging but good for intermediate to advanced bikers with some small hills mixed in. The best part of the trail from where I started seems to be from Schwenksville to Collegeville, although I didn’t bike on the section from Green Lane to Spring Mount.
Straight, flat, well paved or otherwise surfaced, and a relatively short round trip distance: The Warwick Trail is a great way to start the biking season.
Starting from the King of Prussia trailhead I found the trail too close to busy streets for me. It was not tranquil especially during rush hour. The trail is broken up by numerous street crossings. For a newbie, these crossings were sometimes confusing.
The trail is well kept and access to many restaurants if you like that. If you are looking for a quiet bike ride in a beautiful setting, I would not suggest it.
