The Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor

The Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor (D&L) offers an exceptional experience for hikers and  bikers, spanning approximately 165 miles through eastern Pennsylvania. This historic and scenic corridor  follows the routes of the Delaware and Lehigh Canals and the Lehigh Valley Railroad, providing a unique  opportunity for outdoor enthusiasts to explore both natural beauty and rich history. 
Hikers can traverse a network of well-maintained trails, with the D&L Trail being a prominent highlight. This  multi-use path offers a variety of terrain, from towpath sections that follow the old canal routes to forested 
and riverside trails. Along the way, hikers encounter charming towns, historical landmarks, and picturesque  river views, making each step a journey through time and nature. 
Bikers, too, find the D&L Corridor a paradise. The relatively flat and well-marked trails cater to cyclists of all  levels, whether they seek leisurely rides or more challenging experiences. Biking through the corridor  provides opportunities to absorb the region's history, scenic vistas, and the tranquil ambiance of riverbanks  and forests. 
Both hikers and bikers can explore the cultural heritage, stop at museums and interpretive centers, and  appreciate the remnants of the industrial past that played a pivotal role in American history. The Delaware  & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor is a perfect destination for those seeking a harmonious blend of  exercise, exploration, and an immersion in the historical and natural wonders of Pennsylvania.
