Get Active with the Montour Trail! – Sustainability Tip


With the weather warming and the birds migrating back North, now is the perfect time to get active and explore the Montour Trail! No matter your ability, the Montour Trail is a great way to exercise and socialize with family and friends.


The Montour Trail spreads across West Pennsylvania from Coraopolis to Clairton with the main line extending over 47 miles! This trail is a multi-use, non-motorized recreational pathway meaning that you can walk, run and bicycle at your own pace. The Montour Trail is also ADA accessible and pet-friendly!

Bicycles and electric bicycles are also encouraged on the Montour Trail. The Montour Trail is connected to United States Bicycle Route 50 – a network of over 18,000 miles across the United States! If your bicycle needs a tune-up, the Montour Trail lists all the bicycle shops located near trail access points online! So whether you’re preparing for a long bicycle trek or a low-impact family walk, start at the Montour Trail in Bethel Park!


The Montour Trail can be accessed anytime from 4 locations within Bethel Park; these locations are on Logan Road, Clifton Road, East McMurray Road and Limestone Drive.  For more information, go to https://montourtrail.org.
