Canal in the Mountains Tour
This scenic tour offers riders a good mix of ups and downs as it follows mostly rural roads through quiet Pennsylvania towns and rolling farmlands set among the mountains of the region. For something a little different, take a short detour off the Arch Rock Road and spend some time exploring the Pennsylvania Canal Park, where a restored lock and lock master’s home provide a glimpse in Pennsylvania’s transportation past.
Riders looking for additional mileage can easily combine this tour with the 35.2 mile Swings & Things Tour.
