More than a series of canals, rivers and railroads, the Delaware and Lehigh National Heritage Corridor connects the mining counties of northern Pennsylvania to the Landmark Delaware Canal in Bucks County and its final stop at Philadelphia, where coal was eventually sold.

Today, it’s not just the history that boaters, runners, hikers, campers and picnickers enjoy about the corridor. The natural landscapes of the parks, museums, canal boat rides, festivals and trails take you on a journey that will inspire a renewed faith in the future as well as a deep appreciation in the past

COME PREPARED
Trails along this corridor are still being developed and are not yet completely contiguous. The Corridor's official website has a great map of the trail, denoting points of interest along the way.

And be aware that rules for use may vary as the trail is owned by various state and local agencies.
