There is now a paved spur of about a mile in length that goes from the south side of the underpass of 295 to the social security building
Being a novice mountain biker, I’d say this trail is a doozy! We bike-hiked for a good portion and then the hubs somersaulted over his handle bars and still we continued, linking up with other trails, until we reached the Cosmic Cafe for hazy IPAs. Goals. We had goals. Needless to say, Cresheim is not for the faint of heart.
Beautiful Trail! Bridge out in Pennpack Park
Enjoyable trail ride between Mont Claire and Spring City. Two full streets along Main Street Phoenixville full of restaurants and shops blocked off to cars but very E-bike friendly (rules posted…must be 16 or over and bike must meet certain specifications). This section has some easy inclines and takes you past some of the residential apartments (some still under construction) which show the continual growth of this small yuppie town.
I have cycled the D&L from Washington Crossing to Uhlerstown a few times. The scenery is beautiful, but the trail itself is not well taken care of. Some parts are completely grown over or only allow one hiker/cyclist to pass at a time. There are also miles of large gravel that I think would be very difficult for road bikes, non-hybrid bikes of hikers with balance issues. It is also very crowded on the weekends.
I did this with a friend on Friday 07/17/2026- 7/18/2026 . We rode from Columbia River Center to Riverfront park in E Donegal township on Friday and Saturday returned to the park and rode up to the end at Falmouth . It was an enjoyable ride with the twists and turns and the view of Schock‘s mill bridge and riding between the corn fields . Also saw a lot of cardinals .
I recently learned of the Northwest Lancaster County River Trail and can't believe I've lived around an hour away from it most of my life and had never heard of it before. I walked the first 2.5 miles and will finish the trail in segments later this year. Very popular with bicyclists, walkers, dog walkers, families, seniors, you name it. Best of all, the trail passes through historic towns that most folks would never stop and visit. A true game waiting to be discovered or rediscovered.
During the past two decades, I have been on numerous urban trails that link parks, historical sites and cultural centers, helping to revitalize old neighborhoods and improving quality of life to residents of our cities.
This Frankford Creek Greenway, unfortunately, is not one of these trails. Most of the trail's route runs past salvage yards and other industries in a sketchy part of town. The site of the colonial-era Wheatsheaf Tavern, which was demolished in 2007, is now an overgrown, trash-strewn lot marked by a hand made sign and the only real green space is the strip of vegetation between Lewis St. and active Norfolk Southern/NJ Transit RR tracks. One positive feature of this section is that it provides opportunities for railfans to get good views of freight and commuter trains that frequently pass by.
Although most of the trail's asphalt surface is in good condition, the same cannot be said about the short concurrency with Richmond St. As of mid-2026, the markings directing cyclists to use the street and pedestrians onto the sidewalks have faded and are hard to make out as sections of both have crumbled away. Both the street and sidewalk are now very rough and badly in need of repairs.
In all fairness, the trail does provide a mostly offstreet link from Aramingo Ave. to the Port Richmond Trail and will eventually be extended northwest to the Tacony Creek Greenway. It is also part of both The Circuit and East Coast Greenway and will likely get more attention once all of these trails are joined together. In the meantime, it serves as little more than a connector to other, more scenic paths.
Beautiful Beautiful Beautiful! Serene and peaceful trail with a lot of beautiful nature to see. Bring your camera.
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.
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
