Impromptu exit off I-80 to explore Emlenton, PA & I found myself at the start/end point for the Allegheny River Trail! Very exciting indeed, as this trail has been on my “to bike” list. I am coming out of winter hibernation physically - yes I know it is closer to summer than winter Haahaa! I wasn’t holding myself to a long ride. My brain was all in, but my legs were not. Since I’m by myself, I had to do an out and back. 5.5 miles out and the trail is lovely however, as noted by another reviewer, the roots are coming up through the blacktop. Forcing one to really pay attention to the trails as to not pop a tire or jump a rail like a horse. Looking forward to doing some more on this trail! PS - a town employee gave me directions to their recreation bathrooms so I didn’t have to use a ports potty.
The GAP trail was amazing. The nicely maintained 150 mile trail along the Pennsylvania mountains and rivers and then the descend into the Cumberland Valley was the best! We took it easy planning to only ride around 30 miles a day staying in Airbnb’s along the way. We rode it in 5 days and spend an extra day in Cumberland and did a 15 mile out and back along the C&O. We rented bikes ahead of time with the Golden triangle in Pittsburgh. they fitted the bikes out for us and provided a shuttle ride back to Pittsburgh for the bikes and us. We are looking forward to doing more trails in this area.
Trail is 21 miles in length and crushed limestone. Biked on a section of it, Spring 2026. The section I was on mostly through Farmlands. Parked at Bonniebrook. Saw the new painted mural at Marwood Road trailhead and parking.
Bike touring across tha US and I’m currently set in my hammock about 10 mils outside of frostbite head West! Gotta say that MD & PA has out done themselves on tha GAP! Wish other places “you kno who you are WV, yea you! Anyway, I love its backcountry vibe and tha fact that it’s well maintained! Hope tha rail to trail route gets done sooner rather than later and is maintained this well instead of corrupt politicians pocketing tha money! You kno who you are, you! Anyway, to tha hiker and biker trash out there, one love!
Highly recommend this beautiful and well kept trail. Beautiful to ride along the trees and over the 2 epic ohiopyle bridges.
04/04/2026.Great Savage Tunnel on the Great Allegheny Passage is open. Motion sensor lights to illuminate the tunnel. If you have bike lights, maybe use them inside the tunnel so other users can see your presence easier.
When Connellsville to Point Marion is completed, the Sheepskin Trail should be fantastic, but for now the pieces are nice but short and incomplete - just a few miles each. Fayette County should pick up the pace and finish building this trail before we're all too old to bike them!
There are also pieces near Dunbar and Uniontown, but the pieces I biked most recently were around Point Marion. From the WV-PA border there is trail 1.5 miles north along the Monongahela River to Point Marion - this segment has existed in some form for decades, but I think it got a nice surface only in 2018. The newer sections (opened in 2022?) parallel Cheat River and Nilan Rd. There is a 1.2 mile long section starting at the north end of the Route 119 bridge over the Cheat River, continuing eastward. Then a gap of several hundred feet at the little community of Hope Hollow. Then if you go up a slope from Nilan Rd you can get onto another segment of trail, 1 mile long, that continues eastward toward the little community of Lake Lynn, stopping just before the coke ovens. The surface of these trails is crushed limestone. A new trail bridge is planned for construction by 2027 in Hope Hollow: https://www.pa.gov/agencies/penndot/projects-near-you/district-12-projects/sheepskin-trail-nilan-bridge
My wife and I walked this entire trail on a very warm, last day of February. The trail is very nice and pleasant with a lovely Browns Run always nearby with nice little cascades and it looks like a typical mountain trout stream. The gorge gets deeper as you go towards the western end of the trail. There were several people using the trail. I only gave it four stars because of the short length. It's too short for a bike ride but for walking, it's great. The previous review by stacy_riffle77 about the bridges being unsafe was absolutely not evident. There were no holes in the decking and none of the bridges creaked. In fact, these were some of the best built bridges I have seen including on some major, well-known trails. Go with confidence and enjoy. We may be back in a month or so to check for spring wildflowers.
We parked at the end of Astral road, though not a designated trailhead, there is a small parking lot for fisherman. This is approx 4.3 miles South of Franklin. A good bit of snow and ice still on the trail. Big ice chunks floating down the Allegheny (River). Sandy Creek jammed up with ice at the Belmar Bridge.
Tunnel is closed. I ventured over the top and it's tough
