Loop Trails for Hikers and Bikers
For 30 miles the towpath trails of Pennsylvania’s Delaware Canal State Park and New Jersey’s Delaware and Raritan Canal State Park parallel the Delaware River. This unusual proximity – combined with seven River bridges that connect the two canals – offers especially easy and interesting trips.
- Hike or bike one loop – or combine loops
- Explore river towns
- Enjoy the outdoors
- Take in the River views

- Have fun!
