The Pennsy Trail, a 14.5-mile paved path, traces the old Pennsylvania Railroad route alongside the historic Old National Road. This Indiana trail stretches from Richmond to Indianapolis and was historically significant for transporting President Lincoln's body in 1865.

Ideal for biking, the trail is divided into two main sections. The western portion runs through Indianapolis' Irvington area, connecting a local school, Ellenberger Park, and the Pleasant Run Trail, via a wide sidewalk along Ritter Avenue.
