Recently I rode on the canal path from canal Park in Allentown to Freemansburg PA. Numerous homeless encampments along the trail. Four young ladies running and people with families riding bikes on the trail it is super scary something should be done . The homeless encampments have tripled within one year
under power lines, along fast cars on 422, not worth the time.
Plenty of trails in the areas through actual nature!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We biked from Easton to Bristol and this part of the trail is terrible with washouts, rough spots and places where bridges are out. We biked it because was awarded trail of year in PA. We've been on many other trails in PA that far exceed this trail.
Very nice trail. It is better now that they completed the trail around the lake. You no longer have to hop on Creek Rd to complete loop. Northwest corner of trail has steep 8% grade, if you go counter clockwise around the trail. Great hike, bike trail with paving all round with plenty of parking. East side of lake is much quieter with less pavilions. Views are tremendous!
Great trail for my morning sweatsuit speedwalk.
Driving west on I-80, we chose this trail as our midday recreation stop, and were looking forward to discovering the gorge. So we were very disappointed to find it closed in both directions at White Haven. Reconstruction? No information seemed available, and the local bike shop was also closed. Guess we should have read the trail reviews more carefully; I don't remember seeing anything about this closure in the Trail Details.
Did this trail with 2 kids 4 & 6 they were troops went from oaks to the art museum. Memories to last a lifetime
Despite its relative short length, at 3.2 miles, the Upper Bucks Rail Trail forms a crucial link in ongoing efforts to create a long-distance greenway that will eventually connect the Allentown-Bethlehem-Easton conurbation to Philadelphia and its suburbs.
The stone aggregate trail begins at E. Landis Street in Coopersburg, immediately across from the southern terminus of the Saucon Rail Trail. It passes a couple of concrete plants and quarries as it gently slopes upward through rock cuts hewn for the RR. Check out the interpretive signage to learn about the region's geological history.
Trail users may be surprised to find a small wetland beneath the Springfield Street overpass at the south end of Coopersburg. The trail passes over this wetland on a wooden boardwalk before reverting to stone aggregate as it crosses into the countryside of northern Bucks County.
The trail passes primarily through forests south of Coopersburg. Despite noise of traffic on nearby Route 309, which it parallels, this segment is scenic and teeming with nature. Even the powerline corridors that disrupt the forest are notable for their meadow-like landscapes, with colorful wildflowers blooming during the spring and summer months. The only residential communities of any size along this segment are the quaint hamlet of Shelly and the Melody Lakes Manufactured Home Park.
The southernmost segment of the trail is in Veteran's Park, north of Quakertown. The stone aggregate surface gives way to asphalt and the trail slopes through a woodland before ending at a circular trail that links to the park's playground, athletic fields, parking lot and veterans' memorial.
Current plans call for the trail to be extended further south, into Quakertown. In the meantime, trail users can take the Walnut Bank Farm Trail, a mix of offroad, asphalt trail and sidewalks along Heller and Walnut Bank Farm roads, into the borough. Further south, the Liberty Bell Trail, which currently exists in disjointed segments in Hatfield and Lansdale, will eventually form the southern segment of the greenway, linking Quakertown to Norristown when completed.
