Nice river walk along the Schuylkill River. We got on very near the Philadelphia Museum of Art and followed it down to the South Street Bridge for about a 30 min walk. Some nice views along the way and in particular a fantastic painted mural on a building of Phillies baseball history. There’s a public bathroom along the trail right where the Chestnut St Bridge crosses over.

I absolutely adore this Trail. It's very bike and pedestrian-friendly. And the cool thing is there's two lanes one for walkers and the other for bikers and joggers. So therefore you don't have to worry about running into somebody. I took my wife and son to the trail and she also fell in love with it. We just recently started writing on the trails. You can also have a picnic alongside of the river as well. The best time to go is first thing in the morning on the weekends. Another cool part about this Trail is it runs into Fairmont Park. I highly recommend this Trail if you're looking for a nice bike ride in a place to bring the family.

Love running along this path, especially at night looking at the lights under the bridges. I've always been one to run along Kelly Dr. and was very pleasantly surprised when I realized the connection to this part of the path behind the Art Museum. It would be nice if more of the path lights worked at night.

This was a great walk to get from the 30th street station to the museum area. It was beautiful and calming. As a woman walking alone, I felt safe the whole time.

Perfect for morning joggers, the trail was busy and felt safe because of the level of activity. It was quiet, it was pretty along the river.
