Confirmed from Montour Bicycle Trail, Cecil, PA's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 4 mentions

“The trail has several tree canopied areas that are just beautiful.”

You'll love riding over bridges and through the tunnels. That's right 2 tunnels if you start in Peters and ride up past the Tandem Connection bike shop. But don't forget to get an ice-cream cone treat when you get back. The trail has several tree canopied areas that are just beautiful.

★★★★★ — Space , Sep 2022

Absolutely wonderful section of the trail. Beautifully kept up , a couple of porta potties along the way which are greatly appreciated- wonderful artistic butterfly garden and a spirit tree to leave momentous of loved ones. The trail is mostly level , no big hills !The tunnel is cool and fun to walk through !

★★★★★ — Life , Aug 2021

We've only been on about 15-20 miles of the trail but it extremely nice. Plenty of parking and portajons spread out along the trail. A nice mix of scenic nature and city aspects.

★★★★★ — Dan , May 2025

Fantastic bike trail. It even has a bike shop (which proved to be convenient) and they have a pizza shop and ice cream shop too!

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
