Trail Description:
Nice park. Hard pack, loose gravel & some sand along the Pennypack Creek. Short quick climbs & descents, or use the paved trail for an 18 mile round trip endurance work-out
How to get there:
In Northeast Philly. Trail heads between Montgomery County & State Rd.
Additional Notes:
Good for beginners, but an experienced rider can enjoy the trip with increased speed.

This park has miles of all levels of single track, but you are going to have to look hard and explore to find all of them. Best bet is to hook up with somebody who knows how they all inter- lock into one long system of trails.

Great path. Also dirt trails. From river to Holme ave. relatively smooth then hills up to Pine Rd.
By a bell for your bike....best thing I ever did for this trail. A lot of walkers.

There is a lot of single track here! Not a lot of climbing, but there is tight twisty single track with numerous logs to jump. Downside is there is no accurate map, so you are just going to have to explore. However, it's hard to get lost because you'll eventually end up along the river. So note which direction the stream is flowing when you leave your car.

Very pleasant riding. Not the most "technical" but a great park for all skill levels. If you want technical go to Neshaminy H.S.. then go to the E.R. for xrays and stiches.

Nice park! Mostly easy, but a few moderate climbs to get you going. Nice stream crossings. Crowded on weekends.

Great single track - trails go from beginner to advanced. Some technical downhill's. Go get lost for a couple of hours here you will enjoy it. **http://www.ictraining.com/CarlW/** Blood Sweat and Gears - Christian Riders

Have been riding Pennypack for years. There are many single track trails that are simple and many that also technical off the main trails. Just have to look and have some fun exploring.

It is not mostly paved! Great riding for the beginner & intermediate cross country mountain biker. There are plenty of dirt trails to use. If you stay in the dirt you can spend two hours biking the park.

Mostly paved road,but a decent selection of trails provide a good challenge for most beginners. Steep slopes near the Roosevelt Blvd. call for caution as the paths are tight and the hills fast.
