2019 Scenic Schuylkill Century Routes

Note: All routes listed on this page are preliminary and subject to change. They are the routes from last year's event, but will most likely be updated for this year due to roadworks, etc. We wish to provide our riders with the safest and most scenic routes we can create.

All routes for the 2019 Scenic Schuylkill Century start and finish at AIM Academy, halfway between the village of Conshohocken and Philadelphia on River Road along the Schuylkill River. It's next to the tall water tower that can be seen from the Schuylkill River Trail.

Ample free parking is available on-site.

Riders may choose one of five scenic routes which all run along the same course, ranging from a 21 mile loop into the Philadelphia Art Museum and back, to the full 101-mile Century route. In Montgomery County our routes continue out through Evansburg State Park to Green Lane Reservoir and back. All routes are on paved roads or trails.

Cue sheets and GPS files for all routes will be available online and sent to riders about a week before the event. Printed cue sheets for all routes will be available at the start. Links to Ride with GPS files are included below.
