Joseph M. McDade Recreational Trail

Addition to very picturesque trail

November, 2025 by kaiser

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 .

Joseph M. McDade Recreational Trail

Very picturesque good trail .

November, 2025 by kaiser

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.

Sussex Branch Trail

Great For Fall Foliage

October, 2025 by 7zwbq79645

The trail is well maintained. Mostly passable with gravel bike except a small portion around Andover. The section around Andover is also hard to navigate.

D&H Rail Trail

Great trail, with some room for improvement

October, 2025 by ibew241

My wife & I ride from the north end to just south of Steven’s Point. From Steven’s Point south we experienced rough trail conditions including trail-wide mud puddles and ballast stone, nothing like the stone dust conditions to the north. There were still a lot of downed trees along the path from earlier storm damage. Consider becoming a member of the Rail-Trail Council of North East Pennsylvania. They could use your financial help so the trail conditions I mentioned above can be completed. We will definitely be back to rude more of the D&H.

Sullivan O&W Rail Trail

roots and railroad ties

October, 2025 by bettysaar

We decided to start across from the winery, and end our trip there. We went one way and hit roots and railroad ties immediately. We turned around and got the same. Needless to say, the winery was great. Would be a perfect hiking trail. It was beautiful.

Heritage Trail (NY)

well maintained , interesting sites, and views along the way.

October, 2025 by toddburrparts

I rode from Harriman to the edge of Goshen. Nice smooth, pavement with little or no bumps. I found some interesting sites and information along the way. I will return to ride the second half of this heritage Trail.

September, 2025 by kaiser

Nice scenic ride . The mountaindale side goes through several abandon like towns nice ride mostly dirt / cinders / crushed stone lots of nice scenery for about 3 miles then you end at the Neversink River where a bridge is out so you have to pedal 7 miles via road to hook up on the Fallsburg side which is paved ,nice trail for 4 miles . Would do again , tables , benches and bike tool areas . No road bike for gravel part

Sussex Branch Trail

diverse & well maintained

August, 2025 by kjfhall61

The trail is ~ 20 miles in each direction. A good mix of paved, gravel, dirt — with minor sections that are “single track”’ish.

Heritage Trail (NY)

Nice trail. Poor signage in Goshen

August, 2025 by ddylla

Overall, a very nice paved trail that’s well maintained but very poor connectivity and signage in Goshen. If not for that poor connection, I would have rated this trail five stars. Well worth checking out and hopefully Goshen will improve that stretch in the future.

O&W Trail (PA)

August, 2025 by saint2433
