Four Routes Available for Beginner to Experienced Riders

There are four Bike Tour routes at 5, 10, 20, and 40+ miles. The shorter routes are perfect for beginners, seniors, and families with small children, while the longer routes will suit more experienced cyclists. All of the routes are out-and-back loops that begin and end at Mellow Park in Blakely, PA. Each route will have fun stops that showcase the region's coal mining and railroading history, as well as its beautiful natural resources. The shorter routes will use the Lackawanna Heritage River Trail exclusively, while the longer tours will use a mix of rail-trail and on-road riding. Click here to check out the routes on a special Google map.

The excitement begins on Friday, June 4th at the Electric City Trolley Museum in Scranton. Participants can either register for the event or pick up their event packets if they are pre-registered. Then grab a brush and paint on the signature Heart to Art mural created just for this event.
