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.
This isn’t a trail in any real sense, but is clearly intended to be the entrance to a more ambitious path along the now-overgrown elevated rail line leading away from Summit. It’s literally a few hundred yards that ends in a locked gate. Nothing to see here unless you’re being a radical completion key for every trail listed in the app. 2 stars for potential, here’s hoping there’s some further expansion somewhere in the works.
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.
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 .
The trail from Lawrenceville to Hopewell is well maintained, has good signage and has some beautiful views. If you decide to do the loop, be aware that in its entirety it’s about 23 miles, not 19. You also will need to go on some roads and travel through neighborhoods and commercial sites in the trail gap. If I do this trail again, I would only do the first half. The trail from Hopewell to Princeton was not great and honestly not worth the trip.
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.
This rail-trail is terrific! I use an electric scooter so the surface is important and this blacktop was easily navigable. At one end of the trail is an Irish pub for a fun meal stop- we turned around there to Irish music right after St. Paddy’s Day. Park at Dody Road Haskell. Length was great for us but you may want a longer ride/walk.
I rode this trail for the first time today (April 24, 2026). Contrary to the current map the trail does extend from the Cynwyd Station to the Bala Station at City Avenue. The extension looks quite new.
