One of America’s largest trail networks is in your backyard.
What is the Circuit?
Did you know that one of America’s largest trail networks is in your backyard? Greater Philadelphia is the proud home of the Circuit Trails, a vast regional network of hundreds of miles of multi-use trails that is growing in size each year. The Circuit connects our local communities, providing endless opportunities for recreating and commuting. So whether you bike it, walk it, or run it, the point is — just enjoy it.
The Circuit Trails network will encompass more than 850 miles of interconnected multiuse trails in the Greater Philadelphia and southern New Jersey region.
With 500 miles of the Circuit Trails now complete or in-progress, the Circuit Trails Coalition is turning its focus to the next phase — adding another 50 miles of new trail by 2030. Together, we’ll push to accelerate trail construction and expand access across the Greater Philadelphia and southern New Jersey region.
The Circuit Trails are a diverse and growing network of trails for our the Greater Philadelphia/Southern New Jersey region to connect, gather, commute, recreate and discover new destinations. With more than 500 miles of completed, funded or planned trails, our network is still growing toward its ultimate goal of 850+ miles across the nine-county region.
Some of the region’s most iconic trails — the Schuylkill River Trail and Schuylkill Banks Boardwalk, the Manayunk Bridge, Cooper River Trail, Pennypack Trail, Chester Valley Trail — are part of the Circuit Trails network.
With hundreds of miles of trails #OnTheCircuit, there are endless opportunities for you to choose to walk, run, ride, roll, play, commute or simply enjoy time in nature.
