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
Took the bikes one way then back. Flat and level with one small hill. Good condition with some areas with small gravel.
I wish it was longer!!!! Excellent ride and beautiful ride along the river.
An ABSOLUTELY beautiful trail! We are SO glad we listened to friends and have this a try. Well worth the hour+ drive from Clearfield! We'll be back!!
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.
About a mile above vintondale the trail is washed out could be a very dangerous situation. The washout goes beyond where it’s marked and I don’t know what the rest of the trail looks like, but we turned around and went back. It was too much for us. We’re on Rance and it’s not worth rolling them in all the deep, washout places, caution
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.
Biked from Foxburg to Parker. This section of the trail is separate from the mainline segment which runs from Franklin to Emlenton. Heading South from Foxburg, it is 2.5 miles on flat pavement, very well shaded and goes to Parker. Not in to Parker though, you have to go up the hill from the parking lot and take the bridge across the Allegheny River to Parker. The bridge over the Clarion River is 1.5 miles South of Foxburg. Also, UNDER DEVELOPMENT and maintained by the ART in Clarion County Chapter, is the section which runs from Foxburg to Emlenton and will be approx 3 miles. Currently it is dirt and grass. The volunteers have been working on building the trail. As of now there is trail access along side of the trucking company. Parking is in Foxburg.
