Parked at the parking lot of the Warwick Twp Municipal Bldg in Lititz which is MM4 and cycled to the end at Ephrata. There is a bikeshare station in the parking lot, if needed.
The trail surface is a mix of crushed stone/grave and paved and is well-maintained. The trail ends unceremoniously at Ephrata.
On the way back, we stopped at BBQ restaurant along the trail just outside of Ephrata which I would recommend.
I would recommend riding this trail.
This trail is a very pleasant ride, however, riders should be aware that there are no restrictions as far a e-bikes are concerned. I've seen electric bikes that are little less than electric motorcycles. Expect to see electric scooters, but don't expect them to announce themselves before passing. I see many young mothers with their children, either in strollers or on bikes. Its just a matter of time before a fast moving e-bike and a child collide.
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.
We parked at Veteran's park in Richland Twp (trail starts near the flagpole/handicapped parking area behind the baseball fields) and rode this trail that connected seamlessly with the Saucon Rail-Trail about 6.6 miles out to DeSales University and back. E-bike friendly, dog friendly. Would only use a jogging stroller with sturdy wheels. One minute you are in a shady tree lined area with big boulders then suddenly on a short but cute boardwalk to cross a marshy area. Kept it interesting. Few easy road crossings along the way. Relaxing and beautiful ride. So glad for this addition to my community
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.
There are too many fast bikes on these trails. There is going to be an accident where someone get hit by an e bike of these trails. Someone is going to get hurt badly. A guy when by me yesterday with an ebike with two bags on the back side of the bike, he was going over 20 mph and startled me as he went by.
We left Lewisburg and got about five miles in and it's closed. They are resurfacing parts of the trail.This was Memorial Day 2026
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
This trail keeps getting better- It now has an awesome newly re-graveled sibling trail for bikers, the Conewago Recreation trail, which adds another 5 miles. I road yesterday from Elizabethtown all the way to Cornwall (Rootbeer barrel) and back (30 miles round trip) all smooth. Stopped by Mt Gretna Pizzeria- very close to the trail and no worries about traffic. Also stopped at Colebrook Crossing (ice cream shop!!!), which is so close to trail you can watch people riding while you enjoy a rootbeer float LOL
