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!
Early November 2025. Fall foliage starting to fade but still a beautiful ride. Saw a few deer and the turtles were out on the log in the pond at the Beans trailhead end of the trail, near Home Depot.
I start at Red Hill Road parking lot in Pequa and do the 20 mile round trip to Turkey Hill and back, it is flat, no potholes or surprises and glorious. Two bridges, 5 miles each way along the river, often a train, many groups of rock climbers on the weekend. Just glorious. If you want to add miles, going west is level and wooded. Some might say boring however I find it cool, refreshing and safe. My favorite trail!
Very nice scenic trail. Many places to stop along the trail to stop and take in the scenery.
Level, thin tiny crush stone on packed earth trail. Rolls easily, just a step below paved. From small old town of Newville through woods and farmland 10 mile ride to small university town of Shippensburg, with a couple small villages on the way. Horse path is next to bike/pedestrian path. You may see horses and riders on path. You will see farms, barns, cows, sheep, horses, cats, birds, assorted other animals, louse distant mountains. You will smell manure. It is not 15.8 miles. It is 10 miles from park at Newville to Shippensburg. You can add a couple miles by going east from Newville to a dead end. It's a nice ride. In Newville you can park at the park at Cherry & McFarland Streets
Enjoyable Fall foliage bike ride through the park. Started in Petroleum Centre and pedaled up to Jersey Bridge. From there we connected to the Queen City Trail and also visited Drake Well, the site of the first oil well in 1859. This trail is paved in very good condition with a few rough spots. Follows Oil Creek, water levels very low and some areas of the creek are just all rocks. Park office is closed weekends (it's off season) but there are composting restrooms across the road. Up at the Jersey Bridge end is a plastic restroom, seasonal.
This is one of the best trails around. Paved. Short stretch onto a couple of blocks in Marietta with little to no MV traffic. Very scenic, along river, through woods and fields, along cliffs. Winding through woods, strait ways through fields and a park. Close to level, slight rise and fall along river. Well maintained. Super ride. I saw reviews from electric bikers but really they should stick to public streets. Better yet, buy a motorcycle or some other licensed motor vehicle.

My wife & I ride from the north end to just south of Steven’s Point. From Steven’s Point south we experienced rough trail conditions including trail-wide mud puddles and ballast stone, nothing like the stone dust conditions to the north. There were still a lot of downed trees along the path from earlier storm damage. Consider becoming a member of the Rail-Trail Council of North East Pennsylvania. They could use your financial help so the trail conditions I mentioned above can be completed. We will definitely be back to rude more of the D&H.
Nice wide open relatively flat trail. It is after all a rail trail. After the 22 mile mark it turned pretty rough. Large gravel,mud…. I turned back….was hoping to take this to the end near gap. I do enjoy this rail trail. Well maintained nice country & river view for first several miles
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.
