Fall Foliage Biking on the Jim Thorpe Bike Trail

Fall Foliage along the Jim Thorpe Bike Trail ranks as one of the best places on earth to see the Autumn Splendor!

There’s a chill in the morning air and hints of orange-red on the tree limbs. Fall is here and foliage experts are predicting a spectacular color season! We had a nice wet spring and winter gave us some runoff, summer was HOT early and the trees LOVE these stressful conditions! Some folks have expressed concern about the recent dry spell, but trees and most other plants slow their intake of moisture during this time of year, so it should be of little consequence to the foliage. Book online, fall foliage biking along the Jim Thorpe bike trail.

VIP Pricing currently listed on our Fall Foliage Bike Tours page is valid until September 20, 2019

Though the weather through mid-October will ultimately determine how splendid of a display will emerge, it will continue well into late October, according to Accuweather.com. The Fall Foliage Forecast Experts also predict a late fall foliage peak season and forecasts the weekend of October 19th and 20th to be the Fall Foliage Peak Time. Get out and enjoy the fall foliage biking along the Jim Thorpe bike trail.

Though the early emergence of color can already be seen in many locations throughout the East, the peak of colors will hold off for a while. “Pennsylvania fall foliage and the timing of the Poconos peak fall foliage season has experienced another round of summer-like temperatures, which is hindering color change,” states Tom Williams, owner of Pocono Bike Rental, a bike rental business located in the heart of the Poconos. “We are located at the entrance to the Nationally recognized Lehigh Gorge State Park (featuring 26 miles of Rail Trail Mountain Biking) which is deep inside 1,000 foot near vertical Lehigh Gorge walls offering it’s own unique Eco-system of temperature, humidity and sunlight.” “The fall foliage is affected greatly by this Appalachian Mountain altitude disparity especially being that the Pocono Plateau starts at over 1,200 feet above sea level and climbs to 2,200 feet affecting exposure to the rising and setting sun at a more shallow fall angles.”

The fall season, otherwise known as Autumn, is the time of year when we have one last chance to use the great outdoors for a little more summer like fun before winter sets in so check out the Poconos Fall Foliage doing it in it’s truest form. The Poconos is but a 2 hour drive from both New York City and Philadelphia and most points in New Jersey are within that drive time as well.
