Bikeways
General Tips
Two easy rides through Burlington County provide
perfect opportunities to experience elements of the
cultural and natural histories of New Jersey’s largest
county. You can pass through historic towns, farms,
unique Pinelands, State Forests and ride along the
Delaware River. Because most of the land in the county
is flat, each loop is considered an easy ride for most
bicycle tourists; however, covering both loops in the
same day may be moderately challenging. Begin and
end both loop tours at the Lumberton Municipal
Building parking lot.

Star Bicycle Factory Loop
Travel from Lumberton to Burlington City on the
Delaware River where the Delaware River Heritage Trail
begins. A work in progress, the trail combines an
on-road and an off-road bicycle and pedestrian touring
route along the river between Trenton and Palmyra on
the New Jersey side.
Returning to Lumberton, stop at historic Smithville
Park and Smithville Village, the centerpieces of the
Burlington County Parks System. Listed on the national
and the New Jersey registers of historic places, the
village was renowned for its high-quality woodworking
machinery, the Smithville-Mt. Holly Bicycle Railroad,
and the Star high-wheeled bicycle. A model industrial
town, Smithville grew from a typical, small mill
operation on the Rancocas Creek to a major industrial
plant employing hundreds of workers in its shops and
yards from the 1860s to the 1920s. Guided area
tours are offered.
On the return trip the route goes through historic
Mount Holly where there are several sites listed on the
National Register of Historic Places, unique shops have
a 3.5 percent sales tax rate and restaurants offer food
that ranges from pizza to 5-star dining.

Burlington Pinelands Loop
Traversing portions of the Pine Barrens, the eastern
loop traverses the largest tract of open space between
Boston and Richmond, Virginia. The area remains
mostly rural and relatively undeveloped; the terrain is
fairly flat and sparsely populated. The Pine Barrens
support a unique and diverse spectrum of plant life,
including orchids, carnivorous plants, stands of pygmy
Pitch Pines and other plant species that depend on fire
to reproduce. The area’s specialized agriculture includes
blueberry and cranberry cultivation, and riders can
observe cranberry bogs in the area.
The Pine Barrens is a recharge area for the 17 trillion
gallon Kirkwood-Cohansey aquifer containing some of
the purest water in the United States. Pass by the
Brendan T. Byrne State Forest with more than 25 miles
of marked trails including the Batona Trail that links the
Brendan T. Byrne, Wharton and Bass River State
Forests.
For a longer ride, combine the Burlington County
Byways with a portion of High Point to Cape May Bike
Route which is a short distance from the eastern-most
point on the map.
