Day 156 - Walk along the D&L Trail

This morning I took a 4 mile walk along the Delaware & Lehigh Trail.  The D&L trail winds through Pennsylvania’s northeastern mountains and along the banks of the Lehigh and Delaware Rivers.  The coal and other goods transported along the canals helped to fuel America’s 19th century industrial revolution.  Beginning in Luzerne County, the D&L Trail passes through towns, dormant industry, farmland, and alongside remnants of the Lehigh and Delaware canals.  It travels through Carbon, Lehigh and Northampton counties before ending in Bucks County.  
The central portion of the D&L Trail travels through the Lehigh Valley with trailheads in Walnutport, Northampton, Canal Park in Allentown, Bethlehem, Freemansburg, Wilson and Easton.  


The section I walked along Started in Bethlehem heading towards Freemansburg.
