What People Are Saying About Lehigh Parkway
“We did the planet trail. They have plaques all along the trail from the sun to Pluto. My grandson loved it. Good trail for anyone, even toddlers! Saw some wildlife too. You can fish here. Easy access parking.”

“This was a great walking tour. We went Monday night and that night is only open to walkers and bikers. Walking you can see many details missed while driving. It was very cold but well worth the drive.”

“This is the perfect place for taking in the serene beauty of nature & wildlife! It's also an exceptional place for jogging, walking, bike riding, dog walking, disc golfing, taking pictures, & just about anything else you can imagine! The trails are pretty decent and there are bathrooms & water fountains for maintaining oneself. If you explore the park in it's entirety you will find other things to do including: fly-fishing, feeding fish, perhaps a festival going-on, horse back riding, etc., etc. There is also something in the winter they do annually called "Lights in The Parkway" where you can even rent a limousine to see in person!”

“One of the best and largest parks around. I believe it's 11 miles of trails running along the Little Lehigh River. It's mostly a bridle path open to walking, cycling and even horseback riding. Popular for fly fishing and it has plenty of large open fields open for picnics.”
