I've heading up there a couple of times and had a good time. Everyone is right about the initial climb, but its worth it. I think there is a way just to access the downhill part from fox hill rd. I'm hoping now that vertical earth is now in the area, riders will get everything back in shape

The comment about it being private property is not true at all. Unless they parked in someones driveway, there won't be any issues. The parking lot is by the baseball field, nothing private about it. They are expanding the network of trails here, since Vert Earth has opened in Stroudsburg, place has some serious potential, and is already awesome

Last time I went there to ride, my car was impounded. It appears that only a small part of it is public. Most of it is privately owned and patrolled by the caretaker and his family. It isn't worth the hassle.

Awesome Trails, there is honestly something for everyone. Wide and fast, tight and technical, whateva.. I can spend an entire day out here and never get bored.... You can also kayak in the creek by the parking lot, nice rapids and a little water fall down a ways. It is also a very good fishing hole supposedly. Last time I went there were a million people fishing in the holes right by the parking lot....I may never leave this place next time I go

Ummmmm....I am asshamed it took me this long to hear of these trails. I am in love. They are just rediculous, and next to the parking lot by the baseball feild, there is a dirt jump park built in a revine. It is honestly like a Woodward in the woods, no joke. Now I need to grow a set and not just stare at kids half my age ripping through them.

IMO, the best trails in the lehigh valley & water gap area. I've tried Lehigh Univeristy, South Mountain, Bear Creek, Jacobsburg, Allamuchy north and South, and a bunch of other local trails, and Glen park takes the cake. Every time I go i find a new network of trails. The beginning part of the trail is very rocky and and steep (depending on which trails you take), some might think that the climb stinks, but I look at it as a great workout(it also keeps the lazy people out). Once you get past the first 5-10 minutes, the trail opens up. There are many different routes up/down the mountain, with several vista points that have an awesome view of the water gap, stroudsburg, and the surrounding areas. When the trails point downward, they are just awesome. Be careful, because certain trails have been carefully constructed with wood platforms, huge jumps, drops, and niced burmed corners. Steep and technical and fast and flowy, this place has it all. Oh yeah, and next to the parking l

After you take the exit you should be looking right at a Sunoco gas station. Turn right, the bike shop is now closed down so that landmark is no good. You need to turn Left on Collins st. Go to the end of the street and there is a parking lot with a baseball field where you can park. Follow the river into the woods. Mapquest Collins st, Stroudsburg,PA and use as a visual aid.

Can anybody give a more detailed way on how to get to these trails after you get off the exit....

Overall a great set of trails that offers a little bit of everything. It seems like there has been a lot of time/work put into these trails. If you like fast downhills with serious jumps, drop-offs, and wooden platforms this is your place!! This was my favorite set of trails around the Delaware Water Gap area as I unfortunately ended my biking career last year at Jim Thorpe when my frame broke on a big downhill. It sent me flying and I landed with my legs straight from about 15 feet. Unfortunately both of my knees broke the wrong way and the last thing I remembered was holding my ankles in front my face screaming "Ohh Jeeezz". I heard that it was quite a sight, as the bottom of my femurs were sticking out the back of my knees acting like skewyers through leaves and my pants...Make sure to always check your equipment before riding as this injury most likely could have been avoided.
