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.

The perk

Union Transportation Trail

UTT on a windy day

November, 2025 by johnsmithfromjersey

Started at the southern terminus & rode all the way up and back. It’s a nice trail in pretty decent shape, pretty flat in most places (but not all). Chilly & Windy. If you like wind try riding your bike across these farm fields in the middle of November.

Enola Low Grade Trail

favorite trail

November, 2025 by kay.deitz

I start at Red Hill Road parking lot in Pequa and do the 20 mile round trip to Turkey Hill and back, it is flat, no potholes or surprises and glorious. Two bridges, 5 miles each way along the river, often a train, many groups of rock climbers on the weekend. Just glorious. If you want to add miles, going west is level and wooded. Some might say boring however I find it cool, refreshing and safe. My favorite trail!

Union Transportation Trail

Union Transportation trail

October, 2025 by toddengland

I rode this trail on 10/26. It is fine crushed stone with a paved section that heads toward New Egypt. Good ride with some minor grade changes. The ride took a little over 2 hours to complete. Bathrooms and parking areas were nicely spaced on the trail.

Columbia Trail

¿¿ NJ RtoT. GEM of a trail !

October, 2025 by toddburrparts

Riding popular trails in each state Metro, New York area and NE. This trail was above expectation. Well maintained mix of packed gravel to packed stones. All wide capable of handling traffic and any type of biking running and some equestrian.. surprising mix of landscape from River Gorge to large animal farms. Lots to see highly recommended. Road from Bartley Road to Hoffman’s. Entry point Long Valley, Apple parking and food available quaint town.

Enola Low Grade Trail

Nice until mile 23…..

October, 2025 by acphillips1

Nice wide open relatively flat trail. It is after all a rail trail. After the 22 mile mark it turned pretty rough. Large gravel,mud…. I turned back….was hoping to take this to the end near gap. I do enjoy this rail trail. Well maintained nice country & river view for first several miles

Ironton Rail Trail

IRT

October, 2025 by xbj2d5dj7n

This is a well maintained beautiful trail. We parked at the trailhead at Levan’s road -nice pavilion and restroom to use. When you come to the loop at the end of the spur going right will avoid the hill people mention. It’s not extreme by any means but it will get your heart rate up a bit. We saw quite a few friendly people riding , walking and running. Loved the signage along the trail sharing the history in this area. April thru October check out the Chuckwagon drive in Ironton. Excellent sandwiches and ice cream.

Pennsy Trail (PA)

All asphalt, no crushed stone or wood chips

September, 2025 by walking5
