June is National Trail Month! Celebrate the development of the Circuit Trails and join PEC on our bike rides on Circuit Trails throughout the region. On June 12, discover the natural beauty of the Perkionmen Trail from Collegeville to Green Lane Park.
The history of Perkiomen Trail extends back more than 140 years. It was originally built as a railroad corridor in the 1840s, the Perkiomen Railway Company started running from Oaks to Pennsburg in 1868. Today the trail follows the old rail line through some of the most scenic areas of Montgomery County.
Ryan Beltz, Executive Director of the Perkiomen Watershed Conservancy, will join us on the ride to teach us about the important natural sites along our route. A picnic lunch in Green Lane Park is included with registration.
The ride is 26 miles with several stops and a break for lunch, which is included with the ticket purchase. This is an all-levels ride.
