1. Doylestown Bike Path

Doylestown Borough is a bike friendly community. Bike racks are provided through out town so riders can park their bike while they shop, visit and dine. The Doylestown Community Bike and Hike Network is a network of 25 miles of completed trails, shared roadways and side-paths for use by bicyclists and pedestrians. Wondering what to do next weekend? How about a nice, long bike ride through the trails while admiring the fall foliage. Don’t forget to stop downtown for your pumpkin spiced latte from Nonno’s or Skyroast, pumpkin ice cream at Nina’s, or maybe even a fancy fall drink from The Hattery!
