A small stretch of the Delaware River: great for canoeing.

This past week, my wife and I were able to ride the fourteen mile loop from New Hope to Washington's Crossing across to New Jersey back to Lambertville and the bridge to New Hope. The paths on both sides of the Delaware River and canals is relative flat and easily navigated. Be sure to bring a bottle of water. The ride is pleasant, but it is without amenities.

My husband and I visited for the first time on November 1st. It was one day after a heavy rain and wind storm. Lots of leaves and some small debris from the trees were littering the walking paths. It was easy to see, though, this was not the norm. It is a well maintained area with lots of natural beauty. The main pathways are wide and an easy walk. This time of year a lot of trees had already lost their leaves, but still some vibrant, beautiful color remained. We met a couple of volunteers in the visitor center and they were very friendly, knowledgeable and eager to talk about the Preserve and answer our questions. We’re already looking forward to visiting again in the Spring.
