White Trail is a mountain biking route in the Wissahickon Valley on county land in Pennsylvania. It is a short, flat ride, with the high and low points of the route sitting at about 100 and 103 feet, so it adds no elevation gain. The trail is rated hard, which makes it a challenge despite its lack of climbing. Spring and fall are the most comfortable times to ride. Typical averages from a nearby weather station show May highs around 76°F and October highs around 68°F, while July peaks near 89°F and January lows drop to about 28°F. The trail sits close to other outdoor spots. The Orange Trail and the Valley Green and Thorny Boulder climbing areas are all about 0.1 mile away. Wissahickon Ski Club, about 3.3 miles off, offers downhill skiing.
