Endless East 200
5 Days, 200 Miles

Starting in Tunkhannock, this 200-mile bikepacking loop traces the eastern half of the Endless 430, winding through a patchwork of rolling farmland, quiet backroads, and forested hillsides. The five-day itinerary is designed for approachable daily distances—between 30 and 50 miles—while still offering a rewarding challenge with plenty of climbing and steep grades. Riders can choose from cozy indoor lodging each night (hotels, B&Bs, and rustic cabins) or opt for camping under the stars at several points along the route.

Geographically, the loop is framed by two defining features: the D&H Rail Trail running along its eastern edge, and the North Branch of the Susquehanna River curving around to the northeast and southwest. While the terrain demands steady fitness, the surfaces themselves are not technical—making the route well-suited for both experienced bikepackers and adventurous riders new to multi-day gravel touring. With each day unfolding across pastoral valleys, ridge climbs, and the timeless rhythms of Pennsylvania countryside, this loop balances challenge and scenery in equal measure.

Endless Mountains 115
2-3 Days, 115 Miles

Beginning in Towanda, the route heads northwest into the Valley, visiting the historic northern Pennsylvania towns of Sayre and Troy before climbing onto the forests and sweeping gravel roads of Armenia Mountain. Highlights of this section include the panoramic views from Lambs Lookout(slight detour required) and a stop at Greener Pastures, a family-run farm, distillery, and event venue. Bikepackers are welcome to camp there by advance arrangement, making it an ideal first-night stop for riders looking to extend the route into a relaxed three-day adventure. Back in Canton, riders will find a welcoming local cycling community along with lodging, restaurants, and other businesses, making it one of the small town highlights of the route.

Leaving Canton, the route returns east along Southside Road before steeply climbing Leroy Mountain Road to Sunfish Pond County Park on Barclay Mountain, a peaceful campground with tent camping, fishing, and walking trails around the lake. For riders following a three-day itinerary, Sunfish Pond makes an ideal second night’s camp before the final day back to Towanda. From there, the route crosses quiet gravel roads near historic timber communities like Laquin to descend into the beautiful valley of Schrader Creek, one of the most scenic stretches of the entire route with large boulders and swimming holes offering a chance to cool off on a summer ride, before returning to Towanda from the south.
