Coronary Trail is a short, hard mountain biking route in Pennsylvania's Duff Park, set at the low end of the park's trail network. It is an out-and-back that climbs about 184 feet on the way up and 379 feet in total over its 0.6-mile length, with the steepest stretch at 13% grade about a quarter mile from the start. The high point reaches about 1,150 feet. For timing, September is typically the most comfortable month, with typical highs around 77°F and lows near 55°F, according to averages from a nearby weather station at Murrysville. That station sits about 290 feet lower than the trail's high point, so temperatures on the climb run cooler. The trail sits among several other biking routes. Forbes Trail, Wake Robin Trail and Diana Trail are each about 0.1 mile away, and Violet Trail is about 0.2 mile away. Round Top Trail, a hiking route, is also about 0.2 mile away.
