D&L Trail

Lehigh Gorge rail trail

June, 2026 by cnycyclists

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.

Rahway Valley Rail Trail

Embryonic!

June, 2026 by leftahead

This isn’t a trail in any real sense, but is clearly intended to be the entrance to a more ambitious path along the now-overgrown elevated rail line leading away from Summit. It’s literally a few hundred yards that ends in a locked gate. Nothing to see here unless you’re being a radical completion key for every trail listed in the app. 2 stars for potential, here’s hoping there’s some further expansion somewhere in the works.

D&L Trail

Big Boy 4014 6/13/26

June, 2026 by terryl30

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.

D&L Trail

White Haven to Black Diamond Trailhead

June, 2026 by sees

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.

Lawrence Hopewell Trail

Nice trail

June, 2026 by 7tgkqn44q7

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.

Delaware and Raritan Canal State Park Trail

D & L rail/canal trail

December, 2025 by toddengland

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.

Pemberton Rail Trail

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.
