Biking Trail in PA

Welcome to our Region of Trails!

Here in the heart of Pennsylvania’s Allegheny Mountains, the Trans Allegheny Trails are a system of rail-trails – with attitude. Parts of them are almost level, while other sections are downright challenging. That’s part of the fun for riders who like to get their hearts pumping and don’t mind breaking a sweat.  

You don’t have to be that kind of rider to enjoy the Trans Allegheny Trails, though! Most sections are typical rail-trail (less than 3% grade) and run through some of the Alleghenies’ most beautiful scenery.

And these trails have all of the historic character of the Alleghenies themselves. You’ll see:PA Hiking and Biking Trails
