Delaware & Lehigh National Heritage Corridor is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving a historic transportation corridor that once moved coal and iron from Wilkes-Barre to Philadelphia. It is active in the museums, historical sites, and zoos sector and maintains the D&L Trail, which links visitors to nature, culture, communities, recreation, and industrial heritage across eastern Pennsylvania. The corridor encompasses three regions: the Wyoming Valley and Carbon County with former anthracite mines, the Lehigh Valley where coal helped drive iron and steel industries, and the Delaware Valley where coal-laden canal boats operated. Today, visitors can explore the area by car, boat, bike, or foot, reflecting the region's scenic landscapes and cultural heritage. The organization is based in Easton, Pennsylvania, at 2750 Hugh Moore Park Road, and employs between 11 and 50 people; its website is delawareandlehigh.org.
