Delaware & Lehigh & Raritan Touring Experience ?

My family is planning a multi-day August trip using the D&L trail in PA connecting to the D&R trail in New Hope as far as Princeton, NJ or Morrisville, PA. Our general theme is Revolutionary war history. There are 8 riders ranging in age from 12 to 62, with experience on multi-day rail trail rides. We’ll be camping every other day. We’re riding from North to South.

Have you ridden this trail or a similar itinerary?

  1. What’s your general experience with this rail trail compared to others in the eastern US?
  2. We’re debating what to do in Trenton considering riding east to Princeton to take in Princeton Battlefield State Park and Nassau hall at the University, or instead continuing on the D&L south to Morrisville, PA. Any thoughts?
  3. We’re camping every other day and will be averaging about 30 miles a day leaving time for pit stops. Anything we should not miss along the way?

Thanks for your input, and ride on!
