Hanover Trolley Trail

too cool, too short

July, 2025 by sunnybrookusa

Great trail close to my home so I get to ride it as often as I want. I’m looking forward to another leg being completed and hoping it doesn’t take 10 years. I took my 9 year old twin grand sons on it and they love it too.

Northwest Lancaster County River Trail

Fantastic Biking Trail

July, 2025 by joshua.d.waterman

This trail is paved end to end and is incredibly scenic! The trail goes through several small towns along the way and features great views of the river. It is our favorite rail trail in the county. Get out there and experience all this trail has to offer for yourself!

Enola Low Grade Trail

23.5 Miles are Great

July, 2025 by joshua.d.waterman

The Enola Low Grade Trail is a great rail trail for biking and walking. Starting from the Turkey Hill end, the first 6 or so miles are super scenic along the river. Once the trail turns inland it is less scenic but still a very nice ride.

It should be noted that once you reach Hollow Rd east of Quarryville (around mile marker 23 or so), the trail is not particularly bike-friendly and the last mile is so overgrown it's not even really hike-friendly.

The trail is marketed as 29.1 miles, but if you're planning on biking, it is about 23 miles.

Lebanon Valley Rail-Trail

Well-done

July, 2025 by tnbpptw5x7

There are some climbs at points, but that makes for some fun downhills. Trail is smooth and easy to follow.

Stony Valley Rail-Trail

Nice improvement

June, 2025 by forchek11

Beautiful surroundings, completely shaded. Stones are a little large but nicely compacted. Nice improvement over just maybe two years ago. Saw some wildlife and not many other riders on a Saturday afternoon

Northwest Lancaster County River Trail

This Trail's got Flow!

June, 2025 by jeffrey.r.schmoyer

Echo a lot of other 5 star reviews, this a beautiful fully paved trail worthy of any biker to make the trip to ride. What I didnt expect is that the designers of this trail got just the right amount of curve and undulation to give a rider that feeling of flow. Varied views, plenty of shade, and some trains nearby but not too close, oh and also Marietta is a cool little town... makes a great divert on one leg to find a lunch spot. If only this tied seamlessly to the Enola lowgrade trail... it nearly does via roads!

Enola Low Grade Trail

Excellent choice for a long, flat ride

June, 2025 by tedreese_tl

“Low Grade” is no exaggeration and this is an excellent trail if you’re looking for a long, flat cruise. As others have commented, the scenic highlights are on the western half of the trail so start at Turkey Hill trailhead if that’s what you’re looking for. Portable toilets at maybe half the trailheads. No easy access to stores/conveniences (except Quarryville) so BYO water and nutrition

Conewago Recreation Trail

Pretty easy ride

June, 2025 by tnbpptw5x7

It’s definitely a rail-trail: pretty straight and flat. This trail reminded me of the Torrey C Brown trail in northern MD. It was a little rough, but certainly not unridable or even particularly unpleasant on my 700C hybrid bike.

Schuylkill River Trail

New bridge

June, 2025 by jayneweinhold

Pedaled from Kernsville Dam to just south of Auburn, 6 miles one way. Really nice section of trail. The new bridge over the river between Stony Creek trailhead and Auburn is open. Didn’t have time to pedal all the way to Auburn, had to turn back.

Heritage Rail Trail County Park

Seven Valleys

June, 2025 by dane.burns

Billie and I rode the trail (some of it) on June 3rd for the first time. Headed South we got to the blockades at main St. I heard commotion under the overpass. I went and talked to the workers. They told me to ride through as the trail is open, but the horses were not removed but will be shortly. We are riding another section today. This by far, is one of the most interesting and beautiful trails we have been on.

Jonathan Eshenour Memorial Trail

Varied conditions throughout

June, 2025 by tnbpptw5x7

The trail is easier to follow than I expected due to the “bike route” signs throughout. It’s in good shape. Multiple times it shares the road for miles at a time, but these roads had very little traffic.

Lykens Valley Rail Trail

Scenic trail through quite areas!

June, 2025 by rorynmarie

Although not totally connected, we found this trail to be delightful. It takes you through some safe, side streets to a fairly flat, forested path. The woodsy part is dirt/gravel and can be a bit challenging, as you need to be aware of the twigs, uneven surfaces,and wildlife. But hey...isn't this why we ride?
