Delaware & Raritan Canal State Park

The D&R Canal Tow Path was once a path for mules and horses to tow cargo along the canal. The 69.5-mile D&R Canal State Park Trail is now one of the most popular recreational areas in New Jersey. The trail stretches from New Brunswick to Trenton and is an absolutely spectacular ride featuring open fields, freshwater estuaries, stone walls, cobblestone spillways, historic covered bridges, and old-growth forest. With many unique places to visit along the way, this is a great ride for groups and individuals alike.

White Trail at Cheesequake State Park

This 2.5 miles of looping, swooping bike trail—famous for its scenery, as well as its challenging twists and turns—is not for the faint of heart. A short but adventurous ride, the trail continues onto additional park trails if you want to keep biking. It also links to Arrowpoint, which offers striking marshland views.
