| Lehigh Gorge Rail Trail |
|
Pick
your own pace on one of three scenic, self-guided downhill bike treks.
Follow the route of the whitewater rafters. Ride along the "converted-for-biking"
former railroad bed that parallels the Lehigh River through the Lehigh
River Gorge State Park...an unforgettably unique downhill "Rails-to-Trails"
pedaling adventure. Beginner to expert riders are welcome. You can bring
your own bike or rent one of ours. Round-trip shuttle service is available.

If you do not have the time or inclination to pedal the whole Lehigh River Gorge Rail Trail, we can drop you off at the mid-way point. This option is a 2 - 4 hour, 15-mile, 99% gentle downhill ride allowing you to arrive later and have a very enjoyable afternoon. We transport you and your bike to the trailhead. At the end of the day, we pick you up and transport you back to our Adventure Center. Rates begin at only $15.00 per person. See our RENTAL/SHUTTLE RATES for details. |

Switchback
Railway - The 2nd
Railroad in America This narrow-gauge gravity and mule-powered railway was built to haul coal and became one of America's leading tourist attractions...second only to Niagara Falls. Today the tracks are long gone, the trees have grown back, and the trail has been turned into a National Historic Trail. The Switchback is an extremely pleasant 9-mile downhill historic ride that follows Mauch Chunk Creek and ends at the 19th Century Opera House in Jim Thorpe. We shuttle you to your starting point and pick you up at your destination. Rates begin at $10.00 per person. See our RENTAL/SHUTTLE RATES page for details. |
