Conewago Recreational Trail

The Conewago Recreation Trail is just over 5.0 miles in length and no wider than 8 feet. The crushed stone and mainly level surface make it wheelchair accessible excluding the intersection crossing at Mill Road. While the trail is handicap inaccessible at the Mill Road crossing intersection, and from this point in either direction the trail remains handicap accessible. The Path is suitable for a number of activities such as, biking, running, walking, cross-country skiing, and horseback riding. It is a very scenic route, as it runs alongside the Conewago Creek for majority of the way, and goes through the Lancaster County farmland. As the trail comes to an end the surface changes, and it connects into the Lebanon Valley Rail Trail, which is also marked with signs. There are 5 different parking locations throughout the Conewago Recreation Trail. The trail has six street crossings of which all have well marked signs that make it very safe for trail use. The Rails to Trails Bike Shop located on the trail serves multiple purposes as people can go there for bike malfunctions, to buy new equipment, or simply ask a question with regard to the trail. A limited number of benches can be observed on the trail, and the majority of the trail is surrounded by trees which provides shade on a hot day. Distance markers are located at every half mile.
