Favorite Runs - Tow Path

Location:	Philadelphia, PA, USA
Description:	This is technically in Manyunk, but I run to it from Center city so I am filing it under Philly. At the end of mainstreet, toward the south of the street there is an entarance to the Tow Path. It is a scenic gravel path that leads back into the woods along the river. It is a fun and shady run, but the distances are not clearly marked and there are no water fountains or porta johns like on the Kelly/West River Loop. Great for a longer run. Instead of staying on the river loop, coninue down Kelly onto main street in Manyunk, and take it to the Path. You can easily turn this is into a 15 to 20 miler depending on how far you want to go.
