Rail Trail is a well-maintained path that offers a fantastic experience for biking, walking, running, and horseback riding. It features hard pack gravel, making it a fast route, with ample parking available. Visitors can enjoy benches and restrooms along the trail, along with nearby parks and local shops. The trail has several road crossings, and on some days, travelers may spot trains passing by. In addition to the outdoor activities, Rail Trail is known for its amazing and authentic Indian food, particularly the unique desi Indian Halwa. The vibrant flavors and dishes provide a taste of India, making it a must-visit spot. The trail is particularly beautiful in the Fall, with colorful sugar maple trees adding to the scenic experience.
Great trail. Plenty of parking runs from north of York down in the Maryland surface is hard pack gravel for the most part very fast.

Nice part of the rail trail. There are a few parks to check out with the kiddos nearby as well as other local little shops to stop in at. I will note the trail does have a few road crossings and depending on the day you can even see the northern railroad train on the track.
