Had a nice cool ride today. 32 degrees. Trail is pretty good. I only had to go off in one spot where the trail was washed out. Most of the trail is paved, so this is a good alternative if there has been any rain.
Tunnel is closed. I ventured over the top and it's tough
Really nice views, very scenic at parts, and get to ride by some cool landmarks
Just got done this trail 10/9. Gap trail is a wonderful easy ride. Places we stayed were awesome! Bright Morning B&B, Ohiopyle suites. We stayed in the Karly. It was great! Right off the trail!! Coffee shop is great too. They also have a laundromat. We then traveled to Meyersdale where we stayed in the hotel airstream! Gotta stay here! It was great! Know that if you need to take the train back to Pittsburgh like we had too, it can run late. 5hrs for us. We met so many nice people along the way. That’s what I think of when I think of this trail!
We went up park side and it is so steep I fell over. It is paved but dangerous for most.
We just rode this trail and it had lots of leaves. It was hard to look at the creek and waterfalls as we had to keep our head down on the many ridges. There are no immediate restrooms along the trail. We got off at Masonville and was directed to Ace Hardware where they had 2 restrooms at the back of the store. We ate at Subway in Reedsville but that was not easy getting there. There is a garden cafe nearby but it’s open Friday-Sunday.
We rode the trail end of September 2025. Gorgeous day cool temps & sunny. Later in the day it got warmer but this trail has plenty of shade. Fallen leaves all over the trail made it so beautiful. Since we don’t have a fall season in Fla. we were embracing the beauty in front of us. We rode 8.5 miles one way. It’s a must do when you’re in the area.
We just finished the GAP trail & C&O towpath 9/20 from Pittsburgh to DC. We took 8 days and our days ranged between 32 miles to 63 miles. Highly recommend this trail. Well maintained, accessible and clean port a John’s, always had plenty of toilet paper and were frequent enough to remove any anxiety about not being able to relieve yourself in privacy. Potable water was available along the trail which we still used a filter just to be safe. Beautiful trail, friendly riders and towns to visit. We rented a full sized SUV in DC and dropped it off at the Budget on Stanwix St just two blocks from fountain starting point. Worked perfectly to get going on our ride without delay.
I just completed the entire GAP. It was well worth it. The trail was in good shape and there was not too much traffic. I’d like to do it again.
Very relaxing and easy to walk, stroll a buggy or ride a bike.
The trail is crushed gravel smooth in some spots very picturesque views from the island.From April to October Red Fin Blue is open a great restaurant on the island I normally park my car in a designated paved lot on the island then I cross the bridge and bike towards Pittsburgh along the Allegheny River Trail. No bathrooms located near the parking ¿¿ lot which is free …¿¿¿¿
