Parking behind a string of stores and back always next to an environmental facility. BEWARE recumbent/trike riders or anyone who doesn’t like hills. There is a hill in the beginning of this trail and we were exhausted walking up. Then the bumps started. We eventually turned around after about a mile and then the hill. Actually the surroundings are appealing. Now if some agency had the money and could maintain the trail it would be great.
We were looking for an afternoon on the bikes and found this great trail. The Parking lots are very well marked and plenty of spaces to leave the car. Entire trail is well groomed asphalt. Very small amount of plastic bags/bottles but otherwise very clean. Beautiful ride along the Susquehanna river! Yes it was along the highway also, but the river was a great distraction. some Canada geese, a Coramont but no ducks. Bridge crossings were a little challenging but short uphills and very well marked to get back to the trail. Only complaint was that there were no {marked} restrooms along the route. We took advice from another reviewer and did a small loop at the South end of the trail in a residential park of South Williamsport. Beautiful park with a very clean restroom facility. After completing the route, we doubled back from the south parking lot and took the Market street bridge back to the north parking lot to complete the ride. Really enjoyed this.
Love how the town added this bike trail so beautiful
671 Rail Road St. Recreational Parking is a great place to park and Start your ride from the south end of Pine Creek Trail. GPS took down slow in town not as nice. I found this one about 2 mile in.
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.
Although not totally connected, we found this trail to be delightful. It takes you through some safe, side streets to a fairly flat, forested path. The woodsy part is dirt/gravel and can be a bit challenging, as you need to be aware of the twigs, uneven surfaces,and wildlife. But hey...isn't this why we ride?
There were a few short sections where the scenery and surface were nice. However, most of the trail is loud, not scenic and VERY rough.
Riding this trail in the fall when the leaf colors are at their best and early spring before the leaves come out are the best time to ride this trail. You get a great view of the hills and valleys as opposed to riding in green “tunnels”. That being said it’s a great trail to ride year round.
Took our electric bikes on this path and it did not disappoint!! Path is well maintained and the scenery is just terrific. Highly recommend.
My wife and I love riding this trail whenever we can. Easy to get to, trail heads are very well done, restrooms (comfort stations) are spaced out quite well, beautiful scenery, trail in excellent condition.
On this most recent trip, a buddy and I wanted to get into bikepacking and I suggeste this trail to "cut our teeth". Had it planned all out, but at the last minute he had to back out. I decided I still wanted to do it so rode from Jersey Shore up to Hoffman Campground (which is stellar!), tent camped for the night, and came back the next day.
Wonderful experience all around...you will love this trail!
away from the plain, crushed stone paths of some R/Ts, start from either end of the Roaring Creek Trail. The elevation changes up and down ever so slightly, providing added interest as you travel alongside 2 reservoirs, multiple picnic tables, a waterfall, and wildlife. The quietness while riding this trail is a welcomed bonus.
