McDade Trail — Attraction in Delaware Township

This is a long trail, but there is a free shuttle that runs in the summer during the weekends and holidays. Shuttle can take 2-4 bikes via a top tube rack so mountain bikes are tricky to mount but doable. Shuttle has trailer for Kayaks and of course plenty of seats for hikers as well.
