Biking along the D&L Trail has never been easier! 

The Lehighton Outdoor Center is nestled right on the Lehighton Spur of the Trail – making exploring a breeze!

LOC Biking offers Mountain or Trail bikes for adults and children.

Have younger kids who aren’t quite ready to tackle the trail all on their own? We’ve got you covered. Bring them along with a “Tag-Along” or in a “Caboose”!

Whether you are a first-time rider or a regular Rail/Trail junkie, we can set you up with a cool Specialized® Bicycle and a printed Map. You’ll be off on your own two-wheeled adventure!
