White Trail is a mountain biking route in the Wissahickon Valley on county land in Pennsylvania, about a tenth of a mile from Wissahickon Valley Park. It is a short, flat ride, with the high and low points of the route both around 120 feet, so there is no elevation gain to plan for. The trail is rated moderate, which makes it a straightforward outing for riders looking to move around the valley. 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 highs sit around 42°F. The trail sits right next to the Wissahickon Valley Park climbing area, and Picnic Boulder and Livezey Rock are both within a mile. For more riding, the Yellow Trail is about 0.3 miles away.
