The Delaware River Loop Series - Loop #4 is a Running race in Yardley, Pennsylvania consisting of a 11 Miles.

SIX loops!!! More loops, more bridges, more miles and more time spent with friends!

The Uptown Gentlefriends present the Delaware River Loop Series. A non-competitive, no time limit running series. 6 loops within 6 months totaling 66 miles in NJ and PA along the beautiful and historic Delaware River from Trenton to Frenchtown.



This loop will take you onto City streets for about a half mile as soon as you cross into New Jersey.

The first bridge of this loop is the Calhoun Street Bridge (mile 7.6). This is the oldest bridge of the entire Delaware River Loop Series and was built in 1884 with a total length of 1,274ft. This bridge also helps connect segments to the East Coast Greenway, a 3,000 mile trail system connecting Maine to Florida.

The second bridge you cross over will be the same bridge you crossed way back in Loop #1, the new and LONG Scudder Falls Bridge.

Important Directions:
Same parking and start as in Loop #1.

Once you cross the river into NJ you will continue straight and cross over the bridge (Rt. 29) you will then make a LEFT at the light (W. State St.) then you will make a RIGHT at the next light (Prospect Ave) and the entrance to the towpath will be immediately your LEFT at the next light (you will see the trailhead/gate), once you enter the towpath continue to your LEFT. (total distance on streets is about a half mile).

To get back into PA you will first go UNDER the bridge (mile 10.1) before you see the ramp to get onto the bridge. This is the same bridge you crossed way back during Loop #1.

Notable Landmarks:
Trenton Country Club (mile 8, opened in 1897). Cadwalader Park (Designed by Frederick Olmstead in 1887, designer of Central Park, NYC). Permanent bathrooms on PA side right before the first bridge (closed seasonally) and at the start in the 1799 House. Port-o-pot at mile 3.
