The Red Lion Mile Committee is a one-mile walking and biking path through the heart of Red Lion.
It starts at the Red Lion Historical Society Train Station,
continues under the North Charles Street bridge,
and runs out to Springwood Road,
running along the old Maryland and Pennsylvania ("Ma & Pa") railway line.
This is Red Lion's portion of York County's Rails to Trails Recreational Project.

The trail from North Franklin Street to Springwood Road is ready for use
and is being maintained by the Red Lion Public Works Department.

The section from North Charles Street to North Franklin Street is a major undertaking that requires engineering, storm water management and a design of the area around the bridge. An additional right-of-way agreement must be negotiated for the land from the Charles Street bridge to North Main St. The right-of-way is not an obstacle, but it must be negotiated. The Borough feels confident that it can be negotiated quickly.
