    One of the best and largest parks around. I believe it's 11 miles of trails running along the Little Lehigh River. It's mostly a bridle path open to walking, cycling and even horseback riding. Popular for fly fishing and it has plenty of large open fields open for picnics.

    This scenic loop trail follows a section of the Little Lehigh River past a variety of cultural gems and scenic landscapes. At the upstream end of the parkway you'll find the Trout Hatchery, Museum of Native American Culture, and Bogarts Covered Bridge. There's 18th and 19th century barns, mills, houses and lime kilns. It's a popular trail for walkers and cyclists the river is a well known and popular trout fishery. You'll find some interesting interpretive signage but this trail system is notable for a lack of directional signs. There are a few dead ends and rough spots but overall it's in good condition. Mostly gravel with some asphalt surfaces. There is a short steep climb on each side of the loop. Otherwise it's flat.

    Is a pretty long trail, it used to take me about 45-60 mins to go around the whole trail on my bike. The trail is also connected to the Fish Hatchery on Oxford Dr.

    This is the perfect place for taking in the serene beauty of nature & wildlife! It's also an exceptional place for jogging, walking, bike riding, dog walking, disc golfing, taking pictures, & just about anything else you can imagine! The trails are pretty decent and there are bathrooms & water fountains for maintaining oneself. If you explore the park in it's entirety you will find other things to do including: fly-fishing, feeding fish, perhaps a festival going-on, horse back riding, etc., etc. There is also something in the winter they do annually called "Lights in The Parkway" where you can even rent a limousine to see in person!

    One of my favorite places to get away close to home. Great for running, biking, (for my son and I) picnics when he was little, kick a soccer ball in the open fields, stroll, sit on a bench, throw a frisbee, or drive through the Christmas lights! Great memories!

    I highly recommend Lehigh Parkway. That's a lovely spot around the Trout Fishery River where you can enjoy your walk or run with your family. A lot of up and downhills on the right part of the river, the left one is more flat if you are not an enthusiastic of uphills. The air is so fresh and enjoyable and the crystal and calm river will make your day πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰. Definitely worth a visit πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰. Trout fishing is a very popular activity around and not to forget cycling, running, walking your paw friends will be one of the tops activities. πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸ“ΈπŸ“ΈπŸ“Έ

    Beautiful park to walk or run. Bit narrow to bike next to walkers and kids. Love the covered bridge, the lovely stream, The Little Lehigh, with its banks maintained. The willows bend over the stream and shade trees offer picnic spots.

    Ever since I can remember I have been going to The Lehigh Parkway. Great place to destress and just breathe. Also great for exercising, running, sun tanning, fishing, Lights in the Parkway, picnics, kite flying, walking, picture taking, frisbee golf and bike riding!

    It would’ve been nice if Lights at the Parkway were an actual location for people to review as opposed to the straight-up park. The actual light show was amazing! This was my first year going and I’m so glad I did. It’s so cool how they plugged the LVHN sponsor too.

    Little Lehigh parkway path - cannot say enough great things about this place. Walking. hiking, running, fishing and great place to walk the dog. Will be marking this as a place to revisit when back in the area.

    Great trail riding path, but it wasn't too crowded when we went. I heard there's too many people on the weekend to ride on the path. The shooting range is very loud, so you may want to travel with a quiet partner horse if your horse hasn't heard gun shots before.

    My friends and I went to the Indian festival (it's got a different name but I can't remember if) the place was nice it had porta potties, they were clean.

    One of the Crown jewels of Allentown. From the Fish Hatchery to the covered bridge, it is a pleasant and easy stroll. If your lucky, you'll see the Bald Eagles or the Great Blue Heron nest with mom and her 2 siblings with dad standing guard!

    Pictures were horrible, and the trip was great. The lights were amazing. It was so much fun and entertaining. We will do it as a yearly event now.

    Christmas lights drive through the park is amazing. They really did a good job with all the Christmas theme light show.

    The Lehigh Parkway is a beautiful parkway that highlights Allentown’s uniqueness from other medium sized cities across the country. It is a beautiful place to relax or exercise. It offers two parallel trails on opposing sides of the stunning Little Lehigh River. One of these trails offers information on all of the Milky Way’s planets. The Lehigh Parkway is and always will be a significant part of my life.

    Lil Li HI Trout Farm is a great place to visit and see the different local trout. Being able to feed the babies all the way to beautiful Mommies. $1 you will get a bag of food and can feed all the pretty fish to help them grow so they can be released into local rivers and creeks. Great for children to adults. The walking trails go beyond the hatchery. Next door is an Indian museum which does Indian festivals! Wonderful history experience! πŸ‘

    I love to run here, close to home and beautiful trail following the creek. Ample parking. We love the Christmas lights in December . Subtract one star if the shooting range happens to be going when you're there, it gets loud.

    Went to the Lil Lehigh Trout Nursery. We went there with our parents when we were kids. Used to call it the Fish Hatchery. You can still buy food to feed the fish (trout) for .50, $1.00 or $2.00 a bag. Lots of folks there today. People with their dogs on leashes. Guys fly fishing in the stream nearby. A pleasant way to spend an afternoon!

    This us an excellent place to go and walk. My wife and I are trying to get back into shape. The paths are great for walking on. There is a little bit of elevation changes. I even managed to jog a little. It is serene and beautiful.

    An amazing piece of landscape, well maintained and managed. This is a must see. I am not really sure why they don't market this place accordingly. I would lead with this in every piece of marketing literature available. Go for a visit and take lots of pictures !!!:‐
