Cross the 25-mile scenic bike trail through the Lehigh Gorge State Park off your bucket list during Fall! Follow the Lehigh River through patches of covered pathways and stretches of breathtaking scenery. The spectacular gorge that lends its name to this State Park slices through the Pocono Plateau for nearly 21 miles, creating a dramatic landscape of steep, hemlock and rhododendron covered slopes, rocky escarpments, and side streams that surge into waterfalls.  The Lehigh Gorge Trail is open for biking.
