The Cynwyd Heritage Trail may seem like a stand alone trail, but since the opening of the Manayunk bridge, it connects to numerous trails on the other side of the river. The Trail also connects directly to Laurel Hill West Cemetery, Westminster Cemetery, Bala Cynwyd Playground, Cynwyd Station Park, and City Ave.
And it doesn’t end there! There are plans to extend the Trail from City Ave to the Mann Music Center and down to the Schuylkill Riverfront via the Connelly tract. For more information and project updates, see the Trail News and Future Improvements pages or email info@cynwydtrail.org.
There are five main entrances to the Trail:
Cynwyd Station Park: 321 Conshohocken State Road, Bala Cynwyd, PA 19004
Bala Cynwyd Park: 398 Trevor Lane, Bala Cynwyd, PA 19004
Barmouth Station: 175 East Levering Mill Road, Bala Cynwyd PA 19004 (at the end of E. Levering Mill Rd after crossing Belmont Avenue)
CVS Parking Lot: 260 Rock Hill Rd, Bala Cynwyd, PA 19004 (Rock Hill Road & Belmont Avenue)
Bala Station: 1 Bala Avenue, Bala Cynwyd, PA 19004
