Print Friendly MapThe Lock Haven Levee Trail, also known as the William Clinger Riverwalk or the Lock Haven River Walk, is a 2.5-mile paved pathway that runs along the levee separating the West Branch Susquehanna River and Lock Haven, an officially designated Susquehanna Greenway River Town.
The trail meanders along the river between Lock Haven University and Memorial Park, which is across from the Piper Memorial Airport at the trail's eastern end. The park has picnic benches, bike racks, and parking.
There are benches placed at intervals along the well-lit trail, which passes the J. Doyle Corman Amphitheater and Floating Stage. During the summer, the town's concert series can even be watched right from the trail or front row from a boat on the Susquehanna River.
Enjoy the natural splendor of the Pennsylvania Wilds including the gorgeous views of the Susquehanna River.
At the western end, there is a metered public parking lot on West Water Street, near Lock Haven University. At the eastern end, there is a free parking park by Lock Haven Memorial Park.

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!
A beautiful trail for walking only. There are signs stating no bikes, rollerblading, and no skateboarding.
