October 22, 2025, Delaware and Raritan Canal Towpath

This is such a great path and excellent maintenance. A place just not to bike and enjoy nature but to connect people and places.

This historic district has so many stories to tell, starting with the Lenni Lenape Indians that originally occupied this area. Many of their artifacts have been found in this area, along with signs of early European settlers and 18th-century agriculture.

This section of the East Coast Greenway is just north of Princeton along Stony Brook and the Deleware Raritan Canal. This is a scenic bit of riding along a gravel path, surrounded by water.

This section of the Delaware and Raritan Canal Towpath is one of the quieter segments of trail. It is nestled right along the water and crosses over bridges while breaking in and out of tree cover.
