Description
If you're looking for a peaceful, easy touring cycling experience, the Bike loop from Good Shepherd Methodist Church delivers. This route is an easy 9.4 miles (15.2 km) with a minimal 151 feet (46 metres) of elevation gain, taking roughly 54 minutes to complete.

What to expect on Bike loop from Good Shepherd Methodist Church
This trail, likely part of the Planefield Township Recreation Trail, offers a journey through very pretty and peaceful scenery. As you cycle, you'll enjoy nice water views along the Little Bushkill Creek, pass by open fields, and spot farms, with a good chance of encountering wildlife like deer. The path is largely level, as it was once a railroad line, but be aware that much of it consists of crushed stone, which can lead to a bumpy ride. While an electric road touring bike can manage, a mountain bike might offer a smoother experience, ensuring a comfortable ride despite the easy elevation.
Planning your visit
The extensive shade along the route makes it a comfortable ride even on hot days, providing a cool breeze and protection from the sun. For the most tranquil experience, consider visiting on weekdays, when the trail tends to be less crowded. This allows you to fully immerse yourself in the peaceful atmosphere and enjoy the natural surroundings without interruption.
