We travel all over the country biking on rail to trails. This one is the best. It blows Utah and Colorado away! Tunnels, bridges, eagles, deer, and tons of other wildlife abound. The history of the area is a bonus. Only downside: Middle-aged (like me) guys dressed in Lance Armstrong costumes who think they are on the Tour de France. These losers travel in packs, at high speeds, and yell, grunt, and complain if you don't stop and let them by. We bid a lot, and this is the only place we've run into this. It's not a wide path, but these glory day reenactors think they own that. Nevertheless, even with these losers, the path is still the best I've encountered. We've been on it at least 5 times this year, and we have to drive 2 hours to get there.

Lower Trail (pronounced like flower) spans just over 17 miles from near Canoe Creek State Park to near Alexandria in Huntingdon County, PA. The majority of the trail has a crushed limestone surface except for 3.5 miles of asphalt starting at the Williamsburg entrance. The trail is extremely flat with which appeals to riders of all skill levels. One of the neatest attributes is the well preserved locks along the trail approximately 4-5 miles down from Williamsburg. Those locks were a crucial part of Allegheny Portage Railroad. The trail is open year-round for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Winter activities include cross country skiing and snowshoeing.

Just a beautiful park! From trails to bike paths to playgrounds, it's a great resource. Glad it's not far from my house!

Historic site and event venue. Nestled along the Pickering Creek in Chester Springs, Pennsylvania, the Mill at Anselma is an extraordinary artifact of 250 years of Chester County’s industrial heritage. The Mill retains its original Colonial-Era power train, as well as multiple layers of industrial equipment ranging from the late 1700s to the mid 1900s. Guided tours of the Mill are offered Saturday (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.) and Sunday (1 p.m. to 4 p.m.) April through December. The Mill at Anselma is still a fully operational grist mill that produces stone-ground Bread Flour, Pastry Flour and Dark Roasted Cornmeal. There are monthly milling demonstrations on the second Saturday of each month from April through December as well as monthly special events.

The Mill is great...when they have tours, it is cool to see how wheat, corn, etc is ground up and turned into powder/flour. Also a great place to take the kids to see Santa!!
