Delaware Canal Towpath

The canal is beautiful all the way down but Sotheby's of Rt 1 you begin to have to cross some busy streets which is less pleasant for cyclists.

Great Pathway. They have canals and tow paths-great for a light jog. It is rather flat but you get views of bridges and the water while also viewing the nice backyard of yardley. Gorgeous :)

Both Jersey and PA have canals and tow paths, easily accessed at many points. This section in Washington Crossing is my favorite since it is easily accessible by walking from my home. The pandemic brought crowds, that thankfully have subsided. The path is narrow so keep the eyes in the back of your head open for cyclists. Now is a perfect time for leaf peeping.

Today we hiked 8.7 miles from Lambertville, NJ thru the bridge to New Hope and on thru D&L Trail to Washington Crossing PA & NJ. It’s getting hot but this side of the trail is very shady. Now that spring is here, we got to see wild flowers blooming all along the trail. Also, the sweet aroma from Locust flowers in the air adds to the pleasantness. It’s just like strolling in a fairy land.

One of the best places to hike. Beautiful site, almost no incline for newcomers that need to just get their body moving.
