Mountain Biking Marsh Creek Park

****   Add a review
#17 of 293 mountain bike trails in Pennsylvania
#1,046 in the world

The trails that begin behind the restrooms are narrow at first, but widen out to doubletrack for most of the ride. Good amount of rocky descents and ascents that all are connected by rail-trail that hugs the Brandywine Creek. Network of trails allows for rides for all skill levels.

Trails that are reached by following the paved road begin at the dam. Fun singletrack on this side of the park with lots of rock strewn and rooty climbs. Bunch of fun log sections to ride with a few creek crossings. Trails on this side of the park are better suited for riders beyond beginner skill level.

Rider questions

Q: Can I take my dog on the trails?
A: Yes but they "should" be on leash. I see lots of people in the fields off leash and have never seen anyone get scolded or a ticket
