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.
First time with my new bike! It was a cool morning so hardly anyone out….and then the afternoon came. Kids. Dogs. Ugh. But all good. It was a super fun ride. In the beginning some of the asphalt buckles or tree roots lifting it up so you will feel the bumps
I drove out today as I was excited for a nice long trail but 2 miles in I was going to turn around because the stones were so large, it was a very bumpy ride. I went out 5 hoping it would improve but it did not. Ugh then 5 back. If paved it will be great. It was also 2 1/2 miles of unpaved dusty, potholed road in which was also a big turnoff.
On 4/3/2026 my daughter and I rode the trail for a 21 mile ride starting at the north end of trail, at the Hampton Inn. It is hard to call this part of the trail a trail. We rode down someone’s driveway and along the edge of their yard. Then there was a mud path just wide enough for our tires with several large mud puddles. After the Swopes Valley Road parking area the trail is a wide crushed stone trail, a little rougher than a normal rail trail due to the fact that equestrians can use this part of the trail. After the pedestrian bridge the trail is smother. This trail would be a great trail to ride in the fall when the leaves are changing. The next time we ride this trail we will start at the Swopes Valley Road parking area and ride south to the Lickdale trailhead and have a picnic lunch or continue to the end of the trail to eat at Wendy’s or subway, maybe even get some ice cream.
It’s nice, but it’s really short. I hope they do a trail along the railroad tracks to connect Wilkes-Barre to Scranton.
0 stars if I could. Nowhere in the information anywhere on here does it say pets aren’t allowed, so I thought this would be a nice shady walk for my dog on a sunny day only to drive all the way there and see no pets signs everywhere. Waste of time and gas.
Seriously a fun and beautiful toe path trail that puts you in the middle of the Delaware River and the canal..stop in quaint villages ( ie: New Hope, Lambertville) for a bit to eat or stay the night
Rode this trail so many times in my life and it never disappoints, a wonderful experience
The hardest part is making it over springmount. I love the trail. I do it often. Made the 45 miles.
This trail has been resurfaced and it totally makes a HUGE difference… thank you to all who got this done- I was able to ride 30 miles round trip on both trails all the way to the Root Beer Barrel and back. Bikers have no more worries going to the county line or further!
This is one of the best trails around. Paved. Short stretch onto a couple of blocks in Marietta with little to no MV traffic. Very scenic, along river, through woods and fields, along cliffs. Winding through woods, strait ways through fields and a park. Close to level, slight rise and fall along river. Well maintained. Super ride. I saw reviews from electric bikers but really they should stick to public streets. Better yet, buy a motorcycle or some other licensed motor vehicle.
