I have cycled the D&R numerous times from Frenchtown to Washington Crossing and from Lawrence Township to New Brunswick. I have not ridden through Trenton because I have been told it isn't very safe for a lone rider who doesn't know exactly where the trail begins and ends. The trail along the Delaware is beautiful and very well kept. The trail is wide with crushed stone and easy to navigate on any kind of bike. The trail along the Raritan is nice until you get closer to New Brunswick. The trail is rockier with many potholes and not as well kept, plus there are a few spots where you need to dismount your bike and walk. I highly recommend the D&R for biking, hiking and running.
I have cycled the D&L from Washington Crossing to Uhlerstown a few times. The scenery is beautiful, but the trail itself is not well taken care of. Some parts are completely grown over or only allow one hiker/cyclist to pass at a time. There are also miles of large gravel that I think would be very difficult for road bikes, non-hybrid bikes of hikers with balance issues. It is also very crowded on the weekends.
We really enjoyed riding on the D&L Trail once we were on the trail. We planned to stay in Bethlehem and pick up the trail there. However, we stayed on the south side of the river because by the map, it looked like hotels were closer to the trail from that side. It took us about 3 miles of riding before we could finally connect with the trail. The signage in Bethlehem was terrible. We then rode out to Rieglesville and had a beautiful ride. And then rode back to Bethlehem, and again trying to find how to get across the bridge from the trail was another 3 mile ride. We thought it would be easier coming from the trail but it wasn't. This should be a great marketing tool for the city and we fully expected better signage. We will definitely ride this trail again but won't be staying in Bethlehem.
2 nice bridges and lots of rest areas. There is a lot of chalk that comes up from the trail I just did it on a 100 degree day. That was a mistake. It looks like they added new parking spots. I recommend it
Great paved trail which is mostly shaded. It starts around the Microtell Hotel and ends up at the DMV. I haven't seen any bikers but often there are walkers and joggers.
26 flat miles between Jim Thorpe and White Haven. The section from White Haven south to Rockport is crushed stone and we did it on road bikes with 25mm tires no problems. Going north from Jim Thorpe, there were washouts filled with sand and wider tires would have been nice.
The trail goes downhill 1-2% as you head south.
Today has been a rail trail rail fan dream come true. I rode through the Grand Canyon of Pennsylvania on the D&L rail trail. To top off the beauty of this area I also got to see up close the historic Union Pacific “Big Boy” 4014. She’s been traversing the country commemorating the 250 birthday of our nation. Needless to say I’ve had my bit of heaven on earth today.
Very pretty, flat trail. Suggest parking in the lot in Downingtown and following the trail then connecting to the Uwchlan Trail and back. Eagles nest was seen here-multiple photographers out taking photos. Nice memorial site at the beginning-nice place to sit and reflect with beautiful trees. Very pleasant trail.
Jennifer and I rode the section north of White Haven to Black Diamond Trailhead and then turned around and rode back White Haven on 6/5/2026 for a 21.8-mile ride. If you like to ride thru the woods this section of the trail is a good section for that it is also is a good ride on a hot sunny day, lots of shade. We did not like the parts where there were only 2 dirt paths with grass between them. There is an increase in elevation of approx. 638 feet, to us it was a noticeable grade, it did the return trip more enjoyable. We will ride this section of the trail again.
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.
