My wife and I spent 2 days on this trail. Extremely well maintained and very beautiful. We stayed at the Manor Hotel at about the mid point and there are other places to stay and campgrounds along the trail (you need a free permit to camp). We will definitely be back!
My wife and I enjoyed two sections of trail on two separate cycling days on this, our third cycling excursion on the Pine Creek Rail Trail. We stayed Bear Mountain Lodge just a few miles west and south of Wellsboro. We stayed in the Canyon Room and I can’t say enough good things about our stay there. We could have gotten on the trail just a sort road ride from the lodge, but with only two riding days available to us, and a desire to ride the more picturesque parts of the canyon, we drove to Darling Run and started from there and rode the 8 miles or so to Tiadaghton. There we stopped at the campground beside the creek for the lunch we’d brought. Next day we started from Miller’s Crossing and rode to Slate Run where we had lunch at the Manor Hotel for a 20 miles or so round trip. Two highlights of that day were the hummingbirds at the hotel in Cedar Run and the golden eagle sighting just a couple miles south of there. Noteworthy also were the free outdoor concerts in Wellsboro two nights and the meal and in-house brews we had at Wellsboro House. Altogether a lovely outing.
Is this really a .5 mile trail? I’ve seen driveways longer than that.
We left Lewisburg and got about five miles in and it's closed. They are resurfacing parts of the trail.This was Memorial Day 2026
I walked this trail on May 25th 2025 on a comfortable 70° evening from the eastern trailhead (Lock Haven Memorial Park) to its western trailhead. The views were spectacular. I had over 80 photos and that is after I filtered them down. My only issue was that the trail was under water where it passes under the North Jay Street Bridge. But that was not a problem because I was able to walk down one of the many ramps on the east side of the North Jay St bridge and walk across Jay street and ascend a set of stairs back up to the top of the levee. It afforded me views of veterans park, commemorative placards, etc. Parking is free at the eastern trailhead. However, there is metered parking at the western trailhead. For those of us who prefer cycling over walking, bikes, roller blades, and inline skating are PROHIBITED on the trail! Since I was pressed for time and I am more of a cyclist than a walker, I chained my bike to a tree at the western trailhead and drove my car to the eastern trailhead. With all of the picture taking, it took me a couple of hours to complete my trek to the western trailhead. The bike ride back to my car was easy and the traffic was light. This trail is definitely a “Do Over” trail for me!
They had a ceremonial opening from Wellsboro Junction into Wellsboro today. Only allowed one day to explore the new section then closed for a couple of weeks to complete construction of a fence between the trail and the still active rail line.
We had a beautiful morning on this great trail! It started off cool( in the high 40s) but warmed nicely by noon. Watched some trout being stocked in the river on our way back to the car. I’m looking forward to coming back and seeing more of this area.
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.
Bloomsburg did an outstanding job in creating trail. We go further to the fairgrounds. Beautiful and comfortable ride. No need for e-bike!
