Plan Your Trip
Make the most of your journey
Let us help you plan your next visit to the D&L Trail and Corridor, using our various tools, including our online and regional maps, ride guides, and Trail Friendly business recommendations.
Online Interactive Map
Our interactive map provides the most up to date information on the D&L Trail, while pointing out our Trail Towns, Trail Friendly Businesses, and great museums and sites to explore.
Regional Maps
Love our maps, but haven’t been able to get your hands on a physical copy? All of our maps are available online as PDFs available for digital download.
For more details on our maps, visit our Trail Maps page.
*NEW* D&L Trail Guide and APP
We’ve developed our FIRST EVER D&L Trail Guidebook and APP. These resources bring together the adventure that awaits you on the D&L Trail and the rich industrial heritage that was and is throughout the Corridor. Whether you want to disconnect completely or indulge in an interactive mobile experience, learn all there is to know about the Corridor at the tip of your fingers.
Digital Ride Guides
The D&L collaborated with Ride with GPS and BikeOut to create custom ride guides for D&L Trail. These ride guides will highlight some of the best rides and routes along the D&L Trail and provide custom turn by turn navigation to simplify your visit. These guides also show trail user amenities (like bathrooms, water, and trailheads), and and highlight our D&L Trail Friendly Businesses and historic sites along the D&L Trail.
To explore our current ride guides, visit our Ride Guides page.
Businesses that are Trail Friendly
The Corridor is full of great places to eat, shop, and recreate — but we’ve done the work of identifying the most trail friendly ones so you don’t have to. From training their staff on D&L Corridor and Trail knowledge to refilling water bottles and providing bike racks, our D&L Certified Trail Friendly Businesses are committed to not only welcoming trail users and the D&L community but serving their unique needs.

While on the D&L Trail You May Encounter…
The D&L Trail weaves through a variety of public lands that vary from parks to wilderness areas. The perception of safety is different for each trail user – please plan accordingly. When you are in a public space and natural area you may encounter the following:
- Wildlife – many trail sections provide a connection to the natural world that is home to our furry neighbors. You may encounter white-tailed deer, foxes, coyotes, skunks, black bears, and a variety of snakes including Timber Rattlesnakes and Northern Copperhead snakes. Always stay on the path and keep your eyes and ears open for animals.
- Plants – when stepping off the trail, look around to avoid brushing against a plant that may cause an allergic reaction. You may encounter poison ivy, poison oak, poison hemlock, poison sumac, jimsonweed, and stinging nettles.
- Unhoused Individuals – there are unhoused individuals along sections of the D&L Trail. DLNHC coordinates with landowners to work with individuals to find solutions and access to the resources they need. If you have questions or want to lend a hand, please contact the local landowner to see what plans are underway.
