Biking Pennsylvania: The Pine Creek Rail Trail [The Grand Canyon of PA!]
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 вер 2024
- Ride through the scenic Pine Creek Gorge and view how melting glaciers carved the gorge that runs from 800-1,400 feet deep and a mile wide. This 62 mile, well-maintained trail runs through both wilderness and small towns that cater to trail visitors. Comfort stations, campgrounds and lodging make this a great trail for long-haul riders. Our ride started at Darling Run -- a popular spot for walkers, bikers, and Kayakers! This ride took place on May 2, 2021.

Did the perkiomen trail after watching your video. We loved it!
Does the pine creek restrict class 2 ebikes from being on there?
They state they only allow Class 1 ebikes. But I've never seen anyone in "authority" out policing anything related to the types of bikes people ride on any of the trails we've been on. When you think about it, it's pretty impractical, and a huge waste of resources. Someone would have to pull the bike over to even figure out what it was I would think. So I wouldn't worry about it. Thanks for watching and happy trails.
@@Adventuresonebikes thanks for the response.
And yes, I'll keep watching!!
My Dad and my Uncle Fred began taking our family to this area in 1966. Absolutely beautiful area!
We are hoping to get back to ride the whole trail in the future. Thanks for taking the time to comment, and for watching.
If you had gone up the Turkeyfoot Path, you would have seen the one place and one view that makes sense to call the "Grand Canyon of Pennsylvania."
We want to go back and ride more of the trial. We’ll plan to take that path. Thanks for the tip.
Is this trail paved? (Ok for a road bike)
The trail is finely crushed stone and dirt. It is tightly packed, so you may be able to ride it with a road bike.
We just did the Butler to Darling Run section of this trail today. It was absolutely beautiful. Thanks for the great video of this gem of a trail.
Sounds like you had fun. Wish we could have gone along :) Thanks for your kind words regarding our videos. We hope to "see" you on our next ride.
@@Adventuresonebikes We are in the same part of the state so I’m sure we’ll cross paths. Keep up the great content 😁
@@ruralrider7732 I'm going to have to try and schedule a bike run for all of the people who are nearby -- probably not until next year!!
@@Adventuresonebikes that would be fun! We look forward to it.
Hey just wanted to say that I had this video come up in my suggestions last night, and it motivated me to plan a last-minute trip today to make the 2.5 hour drive and finally check out this trail. Thanks for this video and for sharing your love of the outdoors with others. I rode 22.5 miles from Darling Run to just past Cedar Run and back. Was a beautiful day with few others out on the trail.
I'm jealous!! I wish I had been out riding yesterday. Sounds like you had a great trip. Thanks for sharing that our video helped you to decide to go do it. Thanks for watching.
Love this trail. Biked it a couple times. But we biked a total of 27 miles in 2 days in the hot sun of August. Pretty sweaty, but the scenery was awesome.
Hi. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us. We hope to get back and finish the trail sometime soon. Thanks for watching. We hope to "see" you on our next adventure.
Another wonderful video!! I’m adding this trail to my list!!
Thanks for watching! Love to hear what you thought of the trail when you ride it for yourself.
You were on ebikes...it looks pretty flat...can you do it on a regular bike?
The part we rode was very flat. It was more of a packed dirt trail than anything else. I'm not sure I would want to ride this with skinny road bike tires, but you probably can.
Yes, we do it every year.
An amazing looking ride. I missed the "We're Outa Here" at the end.......signature ya know hehe.
Hi Don, Thanks for watching. Randy’s a little upset you aren’t more concerned about his knee - ha ha. We are heading to Washington DC soon to ride 4 trails there. When are you going to join us? I lost you’re email - dang! But tried to connect with you on Facebook and thought I’d found you, but you haven’t responded :). The four amigos need to take another ride together.
@@Adventuresonebikes Trust me, I got concerned when I saw that caterpillar on his knee, hehe. Which trails in DC, and when???
@@donweber4992 Hi Don. Randy feels better!! We are going to DC soon. I'd like to take this off line. Here is an email address you can reach us at: adv.on.ebikes@gmail.com.
We rode this trail in 2022. At the southern end of the canyon is a VERY NICE Bed & Breakfast called Ludwig's Trailside. It is right along the trail. We rode north up through the canyon. It is beautiful with the trail in great shape and plenty wide. There is a restroom about every 8-10 miles.
Hi, thanks for the additional info, and thanks for watching.
Looks like a nice trail and long one too, that's what I like. 👍🙂
Hi, we only went a short ways on a 45 mile trail. Our bike batteries can't get us round trip, and it's tough to ride an ebike without any juice!! Happy trails.
I love the video but would have preferred to hear the sounds of the river rather and the bike tires rolling along the dirt path as opposed to the music.
Thanks for watching
My great grandfather, grandfather, and the great uncles built a hunting cabin up in that area.
Thanks for sharing. Sounds like that would have been a great place to hang out.
Enjoy your videos very much. I'm a Minnesota ebiker, probably 10 years older than you guys, and my name is Randy. There are lots of trails in MN, If you ever get this far west.
Hi Randy, Thanks so much for your kind words. We will get out to MN at some point. I don't know if it will be next year as our plan is to head to the west coast and we didn't want to start riding until we got to SD. I have a few trails in MN on my list! What are your favorites?
Fantastic video!! We are headed there today and can't wait.
(Side note)
You have a great narrator voice. Well spoken and intelligent.
Thank you so much for your kind comments. We appreciate your watching. How did the ride go?
@@Adventuresonebikes it was a blast. We are going to the Lehigh Gorge in a couple of weeks to do the bike train. We live in WNY and plan on doing most of the trails in your videos!
@@A-RSpeed The bike train was a lot of fun and the Lehigh Gorge is a beautiful ride. Have fun. You've probably guessed we live in WNY as well. We are branching out to Ohio, Canada and Virginia this year.
Have you guys ever visited Letchworth State Park in New York? That is sometimes call the "Grand Canton of NY" My son and I did a trail run video (see it on my channel) in Letchworth - pretty awesome scenery and waterfalls there. The PA Grand Canyon is great as well. I was less than a half mile into my fist bike ride along Pine Creek and saw a bear cross the trail.
Letchworth isn't too far from home. We've been there several times. It is a beautiful place for sure. Thanks for watching.
Nice trail, we biked on it a couple of weeks ago.
Thanks for watching
I gotta do this one. We only live an hour away
It's a beautiful trail. We went in the spring, but I'm sure it's a great fall ride as well. Thanks for watching! We hope to "see" you on another adventure soon.
can you take the bikes up the turkey path to the lookout?
As I recall, the path is narrow and has a lot of stairs. The stairs probably weren’t more than 3 feet wide either. So unless there is another way up there, the bikes need to stay at the bottom. Thanks for watching.
How many miles did you do?
Hi Joe, We only went 10 miles (20 RT) because Randy was only 6 weeks post total knee replacement and we didn't want to push it. Thanks for watching.
The end😂😂
Thanks for watching.
What ever made you think you could improve on God's handiwork by adding that idiotic annoying music? Terrible!
We recognize that not everyone has the same views on whether they want or don’t want music. Thanks for watching!
