Overview

The Tatamy Trail begins in West Easton and heads north to Tatamy Borough, primarily along a former railroad corridor. On its southern end, it meets the Palmer Township Recreation Trail, which connects the towns of Palmer and Bethlehem on 7.8 miles of rail-trail. There are plans to connect to the Stockertown Trail and Plainfield Township Recreational Trail to the north.

The trail is paved and tree-lined with much of it following Bushkill Creek. Along the way, it passes through several parks (from south to north): Meuser, Hackett (where you’ll find a ½ mile climb and descent), Penn Pump, Penn’s Grant Open Space, and Mill Race Park.
