Enjoyable paved trail along the creek with parking at either Pennington Park or Amico island . Fairly short on- road section which includes a segment over a bridge which is best attempted during low traffic times, but there is a walkway .
The trail from Lawrenceville to Hopewell is well maintained, has good signage and has some beautiful views. If you decide to do the loop, be aware that in its entirety it’s about 23 miles, not 19. You also will need to go on some roads and travel through neighborhoods and commercial sites in the trail gap. If I do this trail again, I would only do the first half. The trail from Hopewell to Princeton was not great and honestly not worth the trip.
Started in FortLee Nj , biked over the GWB took a few roads to get to the Hudson greenway . The venture was very picturesque throughout the entire ride , many things to see & do . We ended up going to Chelsea and 505 W 23 rd st to a very nice place to grab a bite & water at the Wildflower . I will do again .
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
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.
This is a great trail to walk or bike. There are no steep hills but, plenty of scenery and wild life to see. Don’t forget to look at the Pennsylvania rail road station at the trail head.
Started at the southern terminus & rode all the way up and back. It’s a nice trail in pretty decent shape, pretty flat in most places (but not all). Chilly & Windy. If you like wind try riding your bike across these farm fields in the middle of November.
