The 9-11 Trail (New Jersey Newark Spur) offers a unique road cycling experience, blending urban environments with peaceful park settings. You'll pedal along mostly paved surfaces, enjoying diverse scenery that includes the scenic Liberty State Park Waterfront Walkway and glimpses of local communities. This moderate 31.2-mile (50.2 km) route, with a gentle 396 feet (121 metres) of elevation gain, is a great option for a reflective ride that takes about 2 hours and 16 minutes.
This trail is part of the larger 9/11 National Memorial Trail, making it a route with significant historical and cultural importance. While specific trailhead parking isn't detailed, its urban location suggests multiple access points. The route is generally accessible for cyclists with good fitness, and its relatively flat profile makes it a pleasant ride for most.
Beyond the cycling, this spur serves as a living memorial, honoring the victims of September 11, 2001. It connects to other cycling paths, including sections of the East Coast Greenway, allowing for extended adventures. You'll pass by notable parks like Stephen R. Gregg Park and Lincoln Park, offering opportunities for reflection and rest along the way.
