Pine Creek Rail Trail

Beautiful Trail

June, 2025 by zap26

This is a beautiful trail. The upper half is much more scenic than the second half. This was my second time doing the entire trail. I got a shuttle to Wellsboro from Pine Creek Outfitters and biked back to the trail head in Jersey Shore. I didn't stop as much as I thought I would and do some of the hikes. It was brutally hot today. I am glad I did this trail again, not in the rain (which happened last time). Don't think I need to redo it again; I would rather check out some other trails in PA first.

Ghost Town Trail

Finally did the trail...not overly impressed

June, 2025 by zap26

The trail was ok. My goal was to do the full trail 32 miles out and 32 miles back (Blacklick to Ebansburg), however the incline heading east was more than I could take on a very hot day so I turned around at mile 22. There were a lot of signage explaining towns that were once in a location. I think I pictured in my mind these abondoned towns were there were at least foundations left or something. It got boring after a while. Glad I did it, don't need to do it again.

Ghost Town Trail

Great trail, but not a place for business advertisements

June, 2025 by jdoug2169

Great trail..been riding it for years, from various trailhead sites. Disappointed to see a roofing company has placed several advertising placards along the trail in Ebensburg near the West Street crossing/entrance. This ruins the scenic beauty of the trail. Please remove before “others “ show up.

Day 2 Ride - More History

May, 2025 by vicki1960

Day 2 of our ride to complete all 16.5 miles (and back). We parked at Flowing Spring Road/Trailhead and biked to Williamsburg and back. Another great day on the trail. This trail is crushed limestone with the exception of the Williamsburg area, which is asphalt paved. We enjoyed the historic Grannis Station, mile 13 on the trail.

Lower Trail

Day 1 Ride - History Galore

May, 2025 by vicki1960

Having traveled over 3 hours, we split this trail up over 2 days and made an overnighter out of it. So much history along this trail, old foundations, and locks & canals, with many interesting sights. We also stopped at Mt. Etna old furnace, near the trail. Day 1 cycled from mile 0 in Alfarata to Williamsburg, mile 11. Trail surface is crushed stone except the Williamsburg section is paved. We stayed in nearby Altoona which offers several hotels and many restaurants.

Bells Gap Rail Trail

Good Workout

April, 2025 by vicki1960

While in the area, we stopped at this trail. We only pedaled up the first one mile due to it was later in the afternoon and we had already ridden 12 miles earlier. Parking on Igou Road just outside of Bellwood. Trail surface was crushed limestone which eventually turned to game lands access road, we didn't go out that far. The entire trail is 6.2 miles. Elevation at mile 00 Igou Road is 1,240 and mile 6.2 it's 2,180. Good workout uphill climb but nice downhill coast on the way back. There is a parking lot at the top. It's on Skyline Drive, and it's in State Game Lands 158.

Newport and Shermans Valley Railroad Trace (formerely Little Buffalo)

Nice historic Trail

December, 2024 by vicki1960

While in the area, at Little Buffalo State Park, we visited this trail. Trailhead and parking below the dam. There is a covered bridge and old mill there. Trail is flat and goes approx 1 mile. Surface is gravel. Interesting stop to see the historical items. We were there the end of December and the trail was decorated for a Christmas Holiday walking tour. In the state park there are picnic areas and a swimming pool up above the lake.
