Allegheny River Trail

Reviewed By Gvis2020traveler - Middlefield, United States

We travel all over the country biking on rail to trails. This one is the best. It blows Utah and Colorado away! Tunnels, bridges, eagles, deer, and tons of other wildlife abound. The history of the area is a bonus. Only downside: Middle-aged (like me) guys dressed in Lance Armstrong costumes who think they are on the Tour de France. These losers travel in packs, at high speeds, and yell, grunt, and complain if you don't stop and let them by. We bid a lot, and this is the only place we've run into this. It's not a wide path, but these glory day reenactors think they own that. Nevertheless, even with these losers, the path is still the best I've encountered. We've been on it at least 5 times this year, and we have to drive 2 hours to get there.

Lower Trail

Reviewed By BrentF23 - Altoona, United States

Lower Trail (pronounced like flower) spans just over 17 miles from near Canoe Creek State Park to near Alexandria in Huntingdon County, PA. The majority of the trail has a crushed limestone surface except for 3.5 miles of asphalt starting at the Williamsburg entrance. The trail is extremely flat with which appeals to riders of all skill levels. One of the neatest attributes is the well preserved locks along the trail approximately 4-5 miles down from Williamsburg. Those locks were a crucial part of Allegheny Portage Railroad. The trail is open year-round for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Winter activities include cross country skiing and snowshoeing.

The views along this drive were simply spectacular. Rolling farmland and trees as far as the eye could see. Highly recommend on a clear day.
