If you have researched the GAP at all, you already know this was among the first trails inducted into the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy Hall of Fame. Many riders continue to go back to ride it again. That speaks volumes to the experience of riding this trail. If you are an end-to-end rider, and not a camper, you will need accommodations. I would like to highly recommend Cardinal's Roost B&B in Rockwood, PA. You will not find more amiable hosts than Jennifer and Chris. The accommodations are spotless, comfortable, and tastefully decorated. The breakfast is out of a 5-star restaurant. They have a huge garage to store your bikes with plenty of space to do maintenance if need be. Jennifer and Chris are bicyclists themselves so they understand needs of cyclists. If passing through Rockwood on the GAP or just enjoying the beautiful scenery, you cannot go wrong with Cardinal’s Roost.
Well maintained and cool on hot days. Watch for signs to see the covered bridge and stream just off the trail. Plant off stopping points along the trail with picnic tables and benches. We ride this trail 2 to 3 times a week.
I’m from Ohio and the Ohio side is awful- so I’m not knocking OH ¿But overall decent ride and beautiful scenery! The trains are pretty cool too
I used to frequent this trail for the views. One of the most beautiful Pittsburgh sunrises can be seen from the edge of Washington landings. Well I recently went back and the area just didn’t seem too biker friendly anymore. It seems like the rocks and gravel have tripled. You have to take a very slow and methodical pace to complete this loop. Please be careful when going to Washington Landing
Only 3 stars cause of dog poop on bike tires every time we go. Trail itself probably a 4
Came up from Wheeling. We did this trail to the finish as it was only a few miles before the end and turnaround. About half the time on the street. But the town had good signage and what was very impressive was yellow lines on the road! I wish more towns would do that. Older trail and some bumps but I was impressed by the markings. Not very busy on the streets so safe for riding.
Don’t bother they’re trimming trees and won’t let you go around them.
Mainly straight, VERY bumpy, pretty scenery. It abruptly ends at a road that is heavily traveled, the traffic is not easily seen! I'll try one more time.
Unique way to experience the water, rail, industrial, sport, and cityscape of Pittsburgh. Numerous homeless camping out in several places along the trail was only drawback.
Overall a nice ride. Great little bike shop called Donna’s Bike shop in Lisbon. Very shaded trail but not a lot to see, would be nice if there were some places near river to pull off on a hot day. Rode the entire trail from Lisbon to the other side of Leetonia, which is kinda a creepy town. Only people we seen were other bikers riding the trail. Did see some cows relaxing in the shade near the bikers fence. I will agree with another reviewer, dangerous intersections, people fly down the road with no care to the people on trail and many crossing are on main roads with poor visibility. Be careful
Took the wife and kids out here today. We made it until the light views pavilions before the 7 year old started to say her legs hurt. About 2 ish miles. Nice ride, absolutely beautiful. My 11 year old was flying down the trails. Highly recommend.
