I rode this trail for the first time today (April 24, 2026). Contrary to the current map the trail does extend from the Cynwyd Station to the Bala Station at City Avenue. The extension looks quite new.
On 4/3/2026 my daughter and I rode the trail for a 21 mile ride starting at the north end of trail, at the Hampton Inn. It is hard to call this part of the trail a trail. We rode down someone’s driveway and along the edge of their yard. Then there was a mud path just wide enough for our tires with several large mud puddles. After the Swopes Valley Road parking area the trail is a wide crushed stone trail, a little rougher than a normal rail trail due to the fact that equestrians can use this part of the trail. After the pedestrian bridge the trail is smother. This trail would be a great trail to ride in the fall when the leaves are changing. The next time we ride this trail we will start at the Swopes Valley Road parking area and ride south to the Lickdale trailhead and have a picnic lunch or continue to the end of the trail to eat at Wendy’s or subway, maybe even get some ice cream.
The trail is actually park path and is not a rail trail. So, there are plenty of twists and curves that make for a fun and interesting ride. Only the pathway on the dam is a straightaway, and the view from it will stop you in your tracks.
The path is generally smooth: it was re-paved 2 years ago. I say "generally" because, inexplicably, they left a half-mile that remains pitted and worn out.
You'll see a lot of wildlife on this trail -- deer, geese, foxes (two and four legged), seagulls, squirrels, chipmunks, all species of birds, free-ranging children -- and, of course, the lake is beautiful and is almost always in sight. There are lots of benches and picnic tables right along the path. It's all absolutely breathtaking.
But -- and this is a big but! 😯 -- DO NOT ride this path on a weekend when the weather is nice. Half of Doylestown will be on it strolling, walking their dogs, meandering, lollygagging, rollerblading, yakking, eating, making love on and sitting in this path -- and, as a cyclist, it's frustrating and not even close to being enjoyable at such times.
The best time -- the only time! -- to ride this trail is on weekdays before 5pm. If, however, you're a cold cruiser or a rain rider, the path will be all yours any day of the week! Enjoy!
I'd like that several years ago with a friend andonly knew it then as Peace Valley Park Trail
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
Nice trail to log some miles but fyi there's no cover from the sun and worse yet not place to sit down ie: parkbench etc
Rode this trail so many times in my life and it never disappoints, a wonderful experience
I just rode a portion of the trail from West Trenton to 2 miles north of Stockton. The path was a packed gravel path wide enough to drive a car down. The grade is very minimal the section I rode on. There are great views of the Delaware river the entire way. I would suggest browsing around the town of Lambertville. There are many quaint shops and restaurants to visit.
The hardest part is making it over springmount. I love the trail. I do it often. Made the 45 miles.
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.
