This trail features hills to test out all the gear to prep for long rides. The water reflection is almost amazing in the morning!

First time riding the whole trail. Definitely recommended!

A really nice retreat from the city. Tons of different birds, turtles, critters! The path is mostly smooth and wide but definitely would be better on a mountain bike. Pretty quiet

Biked the whole thing both ways and got a nice workout

The Pennypack trail is definitely two types of trails. Straight on the Montgomery County part, gravel and just a small incline on both ends. The Philadelphia part is has hills and curves as it follow the creek but paved. Never made it to the river, as we lost the signs when the trail ended at State St. Very busy trail on weekends. Will try it again during a weekday.

Only the first mile was pretty and serene....the rest was basically walking in Ikea and Home Depot parking lots....no thanks!

Great place to ride and smell, see and overall experience the ocean with a view of Manhattan.

When I first rode this trail in Spring 2019 I took the paved section from Monmouth Junction to Stouts Lane. Nice trail but so short at 1.35 miles. I couldn’t go any further across Stouts Lane as there was some sci-fi-looking installation blocking the right of way. Damn, I thought! Now I see that it was a toxic waste cleanup. That kept me from riding there for a year. This past March I decided to give it another shot since it passes through nice woods, it’s got a flat paved surface and it’s less than a half hour from home. Much to my delight I found that the section across Stouts Lane is now open! On my first ride I missed this fact. On the second visit I pushed on across Stouts and saw that the sci-fi installation had been removed and it’s possible to ride through those beautiful woods. There’s hardly ever anyone on that section, too, while the paved one can get quite populated at times. I still love it, though. So, now I can get a full 5-mile round trip from the Monmouth Junction lot to Route 1 and back. Still a bit short for me, but it’s great on weekday afternoons for a relatively short out and back ride. If I repeat either section I can push that to 7 miles and it only adds about 15 minutes...good for getting some outdoor time and then back to my desk. We just now need that darn bridge over Route 1! That would effectively connect Monmouth Junction with the D&R Canal to either New Brunswick or Trenton, and up the Delaware River to Frenchtown. There’s already such a structure several miles north on the Middlesex Greenway Rail-trail in Woodbridge, which jumps the tail over Route 1. South Brunswick needs to get this project done as it would be a great benefit to all trail users, especially their residents.

Good
