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.
During the past two decades, I have been on numerous urban trails that link parks, historical sites and cultural centers, helping to revitalize old neighborhoods and improving quality of life to residents of our cities.
This Frankford Creek Greenway, unfortunately, is not one of these trails. Most of the trail's route runs past salvage yards and other industries in a sketchy part of town. The site of the colonial-era Wheatsheaf Tavern, which was demolished in 2007, is now an overgrown, trash-strewn lot marked by a hand made sign and the only real green space is the strip of vegetation between Lewis St. and active Norfolk Southern/NJ Transit RR tracks. One positive feature of this section is that it provides opportunities for railfans to get good views of freight and commuter trains that frequently pass by.
Although most of the trail's asphalt surface is in good condition, the same cannot be said about the short concurrency with Richmond St. As of mid-2026, the markings directing cyclists to use the street and pedestrians onto the sidewalks have faded and are hard to make out as sections of both have crumbled away. Both the street and sidewalk are now very rough and badly in need of repairs.
In all fairness, the trail does provide a mostly offstreet link from Aramingo Ave. to the Port Richmond Trail and will eventually be extended northwest to the Tacony Creek Greenway. It is also part of both The Circuit and East Coast Greenway and will likely get more attention once all of these trails are joined together. In the meantime, it serves as little more than a connector to other, more scenic paths.
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.
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 .
#1 - We started at Clarence Davies Sports Complex BUT as of 5/29/26 the trail is closes due construction. So we accessed the trail from the Atlantic-Cape College Campus. Between the College and Cape May Zoo is the only shades portion. #2 - Once you get south and east of the Zoo you will be in full sunshine. We had a gorgeously cool day with full sunshine and were fine. A sunny Summer day…prepare to cook! #3 - peaceful ride and easy but not very scenic to look at
Rode the trail yesterday from the Tannery to Jim Thorpe. Saw 7 snakes. 4 young rattlesnakes.Lots of ppl with dogs and young kids riding ahead of them. Please keep an eye out. They were in the road and along the side trying to get warm.
We love this trail. Almost 13 miles round trip.
Easy to find once you arrive near the schools. It's a wonderful connector path for local residents to ride to the beautiful Smyrna school campus.
