If you wanted to find a safe way for you and your children to exercise, is there somewhere away from automobile traffic that you could go without first having to get there in a car?
Do you know safe bike routes from Center City to the suburbs for a little weekend fresh air?
If you are like most residents in the Philadelphia region, your answers to these questions are probably NO!
Information on this type of recreation or activity simply does not seem readily available. If you do find it, it's usually contained in hard to read maps and booklets!

The East Coast Greenway
The East Coast Greenway is a network of 2,600 miles of multi-use trails connecting all major cities from the Maine/Canadian border to Key West, Florida. Touted as the urban alternative to the Appalachian Trail, the Greenway aims to provide a combustible engine-free route for local and long-term travel up and down the East Coast.
