Pocono Biking
Pocono Biking offers a variety of day and multi-day trips for different ages and abilities.
Join Bri & Dee for a 25-mile bike ride along the D&L Trail, a scenic trail that is stepped in history.
“The Delaware & Lehigh Trail is over 140 miles and currently stretches from Glen Summit, Pennsylvania to Bristol, Pennsylvania. This trail was part of the Industrial Revolution. You’ll see old canal locks, beautiful waterfalls, the Lehigh River, and train tracks that replaced the canals. You’ll even see train passengers on the Lehigh Gorge Scenic Railway waiving as you ride by,” smiled Reed Confer, bike manager, Pocono Biking.
The D&L Trail is an excellent beginner, crushed gravel trail that winds through The Lehigh Gorge. Pocono Biking offers standard multi-use bikes, e-bikes for extra assist, and cabooses to bring the kids along.
“We cater to all ages and abilities. In fact, for our e-bikes, we only carry step-through frames so anyone with limited mobility can swing their leg over the bike and get out on the trail,” Reed added.
The process is simple. Arrive at Pocono Biking, fill out the digital waiver, receive a trail map and detailed instructions, hop on the shuttle, and be transported to the pre-determined drop off location. You can also bring your own bike.
Pocono Biking partners with The Y on Broadway and The Inn at Jim Thorpe for overnight stays, allowing you to explore the trail and downtown Jim Thorpe all in one trip.
“Our main shop is in the middle of Jim Thorpe, just across from the train station and near all the local shops and eateries,” Reed added.
