A friend of mine and I cycled from Rock Creek to this trail today. It was really nice and a big surprise to me considering I grew up nearby but moved out of the area 25 years ago. It’s a little hilly and the boardwalks are super slick if it’s rained, but they’re awfully pretty.
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
This trail is a very pleasant ride, however, riders should be aware that there are no restrictions as far a e-bikes are concerned. I've seen electric bikes that are little less than electric motorcycles. Expect to see electric scooters, but don't expect them to announce themselves before passing. I see many young mothers with their children, either in strollers or on bikes. Its just a matter of time before a fast moving e-bike and a child collide.
For the most part the trail itself is in good condition. There is a rough area near mile marker 3, but its only about 50 yards long and another rough stretch near mile marker 7, just past the Mount Gretna turn off. That section is about 1/4 to 1/2 mile long.
There are multiple portable toilets along the trail, however the one at Lawn ,mile marker 2, is ( and has been for at least a year ) disgusting. also the one at the Root Beer Barrel parking lot has recently gotten worse, but not as bad as Lawn.
There are, as mentioned by others, too many e-bike riders who don't respect others on the trail, They pass without giving warning, ride beyond the posted trail speed limit and most importantly ride other than class 1 e-bikes.
Finally, why do some riders insist on having bright headlights or taillights? I can understand if you are riding on a road, but what purpose do they serve when riding ln a trail?
Discovered this comfortable place with great accommodations for two bike travelers. They offer a pullout sofa if you do not wish to share a bed. Indoor bike storage with a comfy bed and a hot shower! Distillery right next-door and two restaurants to fuel up in the morning to get back on the trail. Close to the panhandle of West Virginia. Their name is Harmony Trail Haven on Airbnb.
Please update the Hanover Trolley Trail map. The new section is just beautiful!
There are too many fast bikes on these trails. There is going to be an accident where someone get hit by an e bike of these trails. Someone is going to get hurt badly. A guy when by me yesterday with an ebike with two bags on the back side of the bike, he was going over 20 mph and startled me as he went by.
I'm a new super fan of rails to trails! Loved this ride. Especially Travelers Coffee and market. ¿¿¿¿¿¿
Highly recommend this beautiful and well kept trail. Beautiful to ride along the trees and over the 2 epic ohiopyle bridges.
First time my friend and I have trail skated! This was so fun, especially for 2 67 yr. olds!! Saw lots of walkers, bikers, etc., everyone was friendly, beautiful scenery, squirrels and birds everywhere, great place to rollerskate!
My friend and I went for the first time and had a blast.
