31.3-mile course along the river
This trail runs nearly the length of the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area on the Pennsylvania side of the Delaware River across from New Jersey.
The protected area preserves the flora and fauna, as well as historical and archaeological sites, in a steep gorge that the river carved through a ridge in the Appalachian Mountains.
Several waterfalls crash off the cliffs.
The crushed-stone path is mostly flat, except for a nearly mile-long section that climbs from the river to the visitor center on a ridge overlooking the southern section.
Trailheads are less than 5 miles apart and are connected by a free bus shuttle that runs on weekends through the summer.
