The Basics: This section of trail connects Allentown and Bethlehem, the two largest cities along the D&L Trail, but users would never know it. Trips on the canal towpath are tranquil. Trout rise in the canal on one side, while the Lehigh River quietly flows on the other.
The Details: The trail follows the earthen canal towpath and provides a relatively smooth biking and walking surface. Ample parking is available at both the Allentown and Sand Island (Bethlehem) trailheads.
