Wetlands Trail is a short, easy mountain biking route in Harrison Hills Park in Pennsylvania, about half a mile long and roughly 140 feet of climbing round trip. The trail is an out-and-back, starting and ending at nearly the same elevation, with the steepest stretch around the middle of the route. Late spring and early fall are the most comfortable times to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show May highs around 74°F and September highs around 78°F, with July and August reaching about 84°F. That station sits several hundred feet lower than the trail, so temperatures on the route run a little cooler. Several other trails lie close by. Woodlands Trail is about 0.3 miles away, and Scouts Trail and Spicebush Trail are each within about 0.4 miles. For climbing, Harrison Hills Park is about 1.2 miles off.
