Delaware Canal State Park is a picturesque outdoor destination near Riegelsville and Upper Black Eddy. The trail stretches from Easton to Bristol, offering a scenic countryside experience for walkers, runners, and cyclists.

The Nockamixon Cliffs north of Upper Black Eddy are a particular highlight. The park features free parking and public restrooms, making it an accessible and convenient option for outdoor enthusiasts. Visitors can enjoy the historic canal locks and the well-maintained portions of the trail, though some areas may require caution due to ongoing maintenance.
Biked the towpath near Tinicum. Its fairly narrow but a nice surface and nice view. No bugs either because it was early April.

The canal path is a perfect place to walk or cycle. There are occasional restrooms along the way and places to stop and sit.

Beautiful countryside with the trail stretching from Easton down to Bristol. Trail is not in great shape like the jersey side so don't bring your road bike with skinny tires if you are cycling. The nockamixon cliffs north of upper black eddy are spectacular.
