We rode from the Cementon trailhead out 10 miles to Slatington and back on March 19, 2025 and were disappointed in the conditions of the trail. Encountered large stones throughout the ride unlike the crushed stone base we experienced in previous rides in the spring of 24 and fall of 22. It was if someone maintaining the trail deposited large ballast rocks all along the trail surface really impacting the surface normally smooth ride. Also had to navigate many miles of bumpy tire tracks.
Wasn't sure how it was going to be, but it ended up being very cool ¿ and a lot of neat things found along the way!! Probably will walk it again in the spring time!
This was a great place to jog. I just did the loop, (not the tail part of it) and that was 2.5 miles. Benches along the way which I used to stretch before and after. The trails were pretty with the colorful fall trees. It was quiet until you get to the street part, but it’s a short distance.
Recently biked this paved trail then peeled off to explore Blueberry Hill trails. I have a mountain bike with tires able to cruise streets and the gravel--I had some trouble in the deeper sandy areas close to the quarry. I loved exploring back here, as there are paved trails in BH but also the more typical rolling hill wooded trails too. I made it an 11-mile ride as I was also stopping for some geocaches in the Blueberry Hills.
Does anyone know if the trail is open between Jim Thorpe train station & Weissport is open? We are heading there this weekend of 9/13-15/2024. It’s been closed for most of the spring/summer season 2024 for construction. Just curious if we shout just head to the Weissport parking lot. Although the trail between JT & Weissport is a fun ride.
The long-missing half-mile section from Rockledge Borough Park to SEPTA’s Fox Chase station is finally open. Not sure where trail parking will be located at the Fox Case (Rhawn Street) end but SEPTA has always had free parking at their regional rail stations on weekends.

On Monday, 05 August 2024, I rode my road bike from Keyport to Leonardo along what I believed would be one of New Jersey's premier paved paths. It's obvious it was once a wonderful path, but that was years ago. The path is disappointingly neglected and is no fun at all to ride on: the asphalt pavement is epidemically root-riven. Some places need to be resurfaced and the wide crevices filled in. I would go so far as to say that the path needs to be rebuilt! It's a shame, too, because the path traverses lovely woods that offer shade from a blazing summer sun.
That same day I had ridden the bay-side section of the Henry Hudson Trail. That part runs right beside the bay and is constructed of finely crushed stone. It's beautiful and is a joy to ride on, even on a road bike!
It's easy to get from the bay-side of the HHT to the bike path that threads up through Sandy Hook to Fort Hancock -- and that route is nothing short of magnificent!
But, from Keyport to Leonardo -- just skip it.
Entered on Millstream. The first 4 miles were very pleasant, wide gravel which was firmly packed. Then it got a rather loose like pine barren sand. I have a hybrid so I was able to maneuver okay but my ride became a bit more stressful. Then after going through the tunnel under 195, the trail became less maintained and more narrow. It was a fun ride, especially since it was pretty straight. Several small bridges, farms and wooded. Very friendly people! It was an enjoyable trail but I doubt I will repeat.
Great ride on a Saturday mid - day. Went north from Washington’s crossing to bull island on NJ side over the pedestrian bridge and back on the Pa side. Be aware that on PA canal path there is a closure about 3 miles south of new Hope, right by the graves of Washington’s crossing , to continue the loop to NJ you either need to double back to Cross at new Hope or ride on rt32 south a few miles to return to the canal path.
I recommend taking Barnegat lake drive between Musket and South to avoid the section of the trail that is barely passable. The rest of the trail is really nice.
