Cross Island Trail

Cross Island extended

November, 2024 by smerchant1120

I frequently ride the Cross Island Trail. You can extend your ride starting at the Royal Farms. Continue on Sadler Rd when it ends make a left on Chester River Beach Rd then right on VFW Ave. At the Quality Inn make a left onto Winchester Creek Rd. Then right onto Hissey Rd and then left back onto Winchester Creek Road. Stop at Nesbit Rd. The roads are not busy and will add 4 more miles to your round trip.

Schuylkill River Trail

Great trail that runs through Philly

November, 2024 by lvcatfish

Relatively easy access from our hotel (Philly Downtown Marriott). We rode our travel tandem that we packed along for this trip. Beautiful ending of the fall leaves turning. Lots of trail traffic in town but traffic and scenery improved a lot as we got farther out of town. Old homes in a section of Fairmont Park adjacent to the trail are worth stopping to see. Dams and cascading water also create a serene environment worth stopping to absorb for a while.

Enola Low Grade Trail

Enola Low Grade is excellent

November, 2024 by jcarey52

My wife and I parked at designated parking 3 miles east of Quarreyville and road to the end of the trail at Turkey Hill preserve. The trail is maintained and in excellent condition. I will note that when parking at this spot as of 11/01/2024 there are trail closed signs and there is still some paving work to be completed. However, the section being worked on is only 2 miles long and is easily rideable. If you want to park at the next location a bit west of this spot you will miss this. Note there are several areas to park along the trail and all have excellent parking and there are many benches, picnic tables, and port-a-johns along the length of the trail. There is no access to water, so, bring it with you. From where we parked to Turkey Hill preserve parking is 22 miles one way. This entire length of trail is in excellent condition and very enjoyable. Heading east from where we parked we were told (as we did not ride east) work is still being done on the trail and it is not in the same pristine condition. We have ridden many rail trails across the United States and highly recommend this one.

Monroe Township Bike Path

Trail is mostly in the woods. Flat and smooth. Small trail at the high school football stadium leads to a dog park & clean port-a-potty. Very pretty and relaxing ride.

Schuylkill River Trail

Sketchy SRT in Reading

October, 2024 by ys77whd5c9

We have been biking the Bartram section for years and love it! First time we’ve taken this trail south from bridge near Carpenter entry gate. There were tents under the bridge with the trail getting more and more narrow. We passed a man picking through bags of spilled over garbage. Wonder if there are trail ambassadors or patrols because we weren’t comfortable going further south

Middle Township Bike Path

Not much to see but the Zoo was a bonus

October, 2024 by adab

This trail is well maintained & marked but there isn’t much to see as it follows the power lines through no man’s land. However!, the Cape May Zoo was really nice & free!

Gordons Pond Trail

Beautiful & just enough

October, 2024 by adab

This is a well maintained trail, flat, varied scenery with a great long boardwalk/ bridge. Nice stops in a few sites with some history. Beach view / marsh / birds. Well traveled with bikers & walkers on a Sunday fall afternoon. 6.4 miles round trip with a strong wind on the way back had me sweating.

Cross Island Trail

Walking out from the Kent Island Hyatt Hotel not very nice

October, 2024 by rebeccabeynon

We were on Kent Island for a wedding, and we took a stroll from the Hyatt Hotel in the direction away from the Bay Bridge. The trail runs alongside the busy road for a mile or so, then there’s a short stretch in a pleasant piney woods, and then back to the busy road. The trail is well maintained and the surface is good, and the part in the woods was pretty nice. But for most of our 3.5 mile walk (total, there and back) it was like walking beside a busy road. If I did this again, I’d try to access the trail at a place where you would have a nicer experience.

Dennis Township Bike Path

Seaville to Cape May

September, 2024 by cbrassington18

Parked at the Dennis Township Bike path train head. The parking area and trail were easy to find. However, there were only two marking spots in the small lot which could be an issue on busier weekends. Rode the trail to route 9 in Cape May before taking route 9 to the Lincoln Blvd beach entrance. The trail has quite a few road crossings on busy roads that will drop your average pace a fair bit. The trail is all paved and also includes mile markers at every .1 miles which is a very nice feature. Overall, a great trail to ride.

United States Avenue Trail

Enjoyable for sure

September, 2024 by jennifer279

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.

Ben Cardin C&D Canal Recreational Trail

Perfect first trail ride for our new bikes. We went a little further on the trail to do 2.9 miles both ways. The single hill is a nice touch for the exercise. View of the water was a nice touch as well for scenery.

Schuylkill River Trail

Fantastic Trail!!

September, 2024 by marotta4446

My husband and I use this trail a lot with our electric bikes. Well maintained but I do have concerns about some of the shallow rooted trees that must be trimmed and/or removed. Amy Marotta
