Jeans' Run Trail is a mountain biking route on State Game Land 141 in Pennsylvania, managed by State Fish and Wildlife. The trail is an out-and-back that starts and ends at about 1,375 feet, with a high point of 1,392 feet. The total climb is 1,741 feet, and the steepest stretch comes at about 0.65 miles in, where the grade reaches 25%. The most comfortable months for riding are typically late spring and early fall. Typical averages from a nearby weather station in Lehighton show May highs around 70°F and September highs around 73°F, though that station sits roughly 900 feet lower than the trail, so temperatures on the route run cooler. Overlook Trail and Packer's Point Trail both lie about 0.4 miles away, and Gorgeous Rocks and Lehigh Gorge State Park are each about half a mile off.
