Biking is a great way to get around Philly thanks to the 435 miles of bike lanes throughout the city! In addition to bike lanes there are waterfront trails on both the Schyulkill and Delaware River. You can bike from river to river in only 20 minutes! Looking to escape the city? You can take the Schyulkill River Trail out to Wissahickon Park for a longer ride.
Riding your bike to campus? Go to the Penn Campus Map here, and then click the “Biking Penn” button just above the map to see the biking-related items, such as bike lanes, racks, and repair station locations. Don’t have your own bike? No problem, Philadelphia has Indego Bike Share with 70 bike share stations throughout the city including 6 on or near campus! You can find even more bicycle resources over on Penn Facilities & Real Estate Services.
Don’t forget your helmet! Check out helmet reimbursement policy here!
