Delaware & Lehigh ("D&L") Trail
The Freemansburg section of the D&L Trail offers a scenic and historically rich experience for outdoor enthusiasts. This part of the trail follows the Lehigh Canal towpath, providing a peaceful route for walking, cycling, and wildlife observation.

The trail passes by Lock 44 and the Lock House, which both are remnants of the days the canal was operational.
