About the event
We reserved a group campsite at Tinicum park to celebrate the Summer Solstice Swift Campout Style. Â Three options to join in: Â Group Ride from High Bridge, NJ or from Action Wheels.
Tinicum is an excellent place to bike pack to since it is close to Frenchtown, NJ you can purchase all your supplies a mile from the campsite so even if you don't have a svelte bike packing setup, you can probably do this with just a backpack and a sleeping bag tied to your handlebars. Â Tinicum has bathrooms and running water in the park plus fire pits (some have grills some don't). Â Firewood can be purchased in town. Â There is trash cans at the campsite as well.
Please be mindful that there are other campsites across from the group sites, so please be respectful and you agree to follow all the campground rules.
We are charging a nominal fee to cover the cost per person to reserve the campground plus an extra two dollars to cover the payment processing fees (just so that we don't lose money).
