Clarion-Little Toby Trail

This trail is one of the nicest in the area! Really awesome when a train comes through!

Clarion-Little Toby Trail

7/17/26. Brockway to Ridgeway

July, 2026 by blarnold

Canadian smoke was not bad. Trail could use some TLC on the surface. Many times of ruts. Downhill going to the Clarion. Up a bit to Ridgeway. Had to exit the trail 3 miles from Ridgeway and go on Route 949 for a few hundred yards. 18 miles. Recommend Joey’s for breakfast/lunch. All in all, a nice day!

Clarion Highlands Trail

Franklin to Marianne, PA using the Clarion Highlands Trail.

July, 2026 by petemohan55

We started in Franklin and used the Samuel Justus and Sandy Creek Trails to reach the western terminous of the Clarion Highlands Trail. The segment between 322 and Kline Rd is essentially a vehicle access road, but is quiet and heavily wooded. I would recommend the northern detour from Kline to Camp Hoffman Roads going east and the southern detour going west. Kline has a 185-ft elevation change up to 322, best traveled downhill to the trail! The trail between Fern Rd and Walt Kahle Rd is in a sunken, poorly-drained cut that is badly flooded, and the access from Fern Rd is a muddy mess. We did a short detour on 322. The eastern segment of the trail is mostly double-track with crushed stone, some puddles, mud, and sections of exposed railroad sub-base, that consist of transversely places slabs of rock. On our visit the grassy segment east of Station Rd was overgrown. If you like varied gravel surfaces, you will enjoy this trail (if not the detours). Wider tires with lower pressures are advised. We continued to the Rail 66 Trail using the shoulders on US-322, but there were some big hills and fast traffic involved.

Knox & Kane Rail Trail

Started at the end of 7 Mile road and went to Kane trail head this time. Last time went towards De Young. Both times the trail is nice and smooth, shaded most of the way, and very peaceful.

Ligonier Valley Trail

Good for walking or short ride

June, 2026 by thesneds

We biked it. The part of the trail closer to town had thicker gravel which was a little tougher and the rest was mostly packed dirt. Mostly away from the road with nice farm views and lots of birds. Flat ride. Plenty of parking at Friendship Park at the end of Boquet St. An easy walk or ride from downtown diamond (square) area.

Indian Creek Valley Bike Trail

My wife and I rode the whole trail and we didn't see any Indians. Lol. Awesome trail except it needs work where it crosses rt 31.

Allegheny River Trail

Foxburg-Parker section

June, 2026 by vicki1960

The detached Foxburg to Parker section of the trail is approximately 2.5 miles in length. Asphalt paved and flat. This section of the trail is very well shaded. Some root damage to the pavement but not like upstream between Emlenton and Kennerdell. Enjoy some time in Foxburg, a few places to eat, an art gallery and winery. Also be sure to check out the progress of the Fox-Hunt Community Park in Foxburg which will offer parking, restrooms and a kayak launch. The 3-mile trail section between Foxburg and Emlenton is not complete and under development.

Allegheny River Trail

Franklin, June 2026.

June, 2026 by vicki1960

We parked in Franklin and traveled South for 12.5 miles to North Kent Road. Also known as Sunnyslope. Beautiful day on the trail. There is a detour 3 miles South of Franklin due to trail erosion along the Allegheny River. Stay to the grassy side of the trail.

Ghost Town Trail

Just completed the loop

June, 2026 by tim.deardorff

Started at Eliza Furnace and went counterclockwise toward Ebensburg to where the C&I trail connects just out of town. Was a 32 mile ride- so beautiful

Five Star Trail

Did not enjoy

June, 2026 by xoknighthawks

The surface is good compacted gravel but other than that, the trail is just not enjoyable. We saw what appeared to be two homeless tents set up along the railroad tracks which run beside the trail and the trail itself runs through areas that are just not nice. A portion of this trail is on a road but has a bike lane appropriately marked.

Allegheny River Trail

Was once great.

June, 2026 by mikewallach

The southern half of the trail is virtually unrideable. Tree roots have pushed up the asphalt making the ride jarring to the point of dangerous.
Trail managers: Please, please, please stop paving trails.

Ghost Town Trail

Ghost Town Trail 22 Mile Loop CCW

June, 2026 by bikin-mike

Great ride on the 22 mile loop using the new 2 mile C&I Extension piece in Nanty Glo.

Parked at Vintondale and did the eastbound uphill along the creek to Nanty Glo. Very pretty scenery. Washouts have been repaired and only a few spots with some larger gravel.

Nice ice cream and food place just north of the trail on 1st St in Nanty Glo. Delicious Chili Cheese Dog and fresh cut fries just like at the fair. So glad they opened about 3 yrs ago. Only other option I could see for food was a grocery store about 1/4 mile south across the river on Shoemaker St. Make sure you fuel up here. No other amenities on the rest of the ride.

Google Maps doesn’t show the new 2 mile extension yet. Best map I’ve found is at Cambria County Conservation. See 22 miles map.

https://www.cambriaconservationrecreation.com/ghost-town-trail/

Just past the ballpark on the east side of Nanty Glo turn left on Ricky Rd then an immediate right on 2nd St, bear right on Springfield, up a small hill on Springfield and a sharp turn and there’s the C&I trailhead. Do NOT go up 2nd St. The trail crosses 2nd St on a bridge and there is no access. A sign on the main trail by the ballpark and another on 2nd pointing to Springfield would be a big help!

The highest elevation on the extension is the bridge over 422. After that it’s mostly flat or downhill along the North Branch of Blacklick Creek. On this late May day there was a nice water flow and the sound of water cascading over rocks was a wonderful soundtrack for my ride.

I also did the 2 miles to Duman Lake Park. I guess it’s not an official part of the GTT, but it has a couple signs marking the way. First 1/2 mile or so was old railroad spur with some bumps and dirt spots. Sign says turn left and the next couple hundred feet were 1/2 inch gravel. Not fun. Almost turned around, but then a couple folks came through on E-bikes and said it’s kind of fun. Next was a 50ft long narrow rusty metal bridge across a creek. Only about 2ft wide - sure glad it had railings. Next was single track hard packed dirt thru a dense forest along the creek with lots of twists and turns. Nice change of pace. Mountain bike tires might have been better, but my hybrid 700x38C tires did just fine. Might not be fun when it’s wet. Finally, back to a 10ft wide screenings trail downhill to the park.
