We loved this little trail! Hit it in the morning while staying over on Vero Beach. Short but sweet!
Trail is nice and flat for biking. However if you are looking for a quiet ride, this is not the place. The trail is next to the road and traffic can be moderate to heavy so quiet noisy. You can ride on sidewalk/trail.
I took some video which I will post once I process it.
Okeechobee Trail wasNice Enough for Skates,Needs Porta Potties ...Bathroom has No Light,and NO Toilet Seat.SHAMEFUL.
Really nice ride from Moore Haven to Lake Harbor but you’re riding on top of an elevated dike so the winds are pretty strong. Also, you don’t see the lake until you almost get to Lake Harbor. That was a little disappointing. Tiki Bar and Grill in Clewiston a great place to stop for lunch
We parked on the north side of the Port Myaca dam and biked seven miles traveling north on the ridge of Lake Okeechobee. Then, we biked back. It was a wonderful ride on the paved trail. We saw one alligator, three racoons, caterpillars, birds and a beautiful view. We loved it and look forward to biking there again soon!
I love the trail, but as an in-line rollerblader, it is VERY rough, uneven and dangerous at points. It definitely needs repaving ASAP!
Four of us started on the north side entering from route a1a and parking in the lot. The conditions were perfect. Road had been recently graded, and since it hadn’t rained in a while there were no puddles. I’ve been on this trail by car previously. It was so much more enjoyable by bike. A lot of the trail is in the shade. And then wam! The Indian River lagoon is right next to you. There’s a historic area closer to the south end where you can stop. Where there are new/clean restrooms and you can enjoy the views from a public dock on the river . I highly recommend. Happy trailing :)
Just arrived and the trail is closed. Guessing they are paving it?
This trail is a sidewalk around the island. It’s really about 10.3 miles according to my tracking. It’s scenic at points but also cuts through neighborhoods which is fine but eh. Super easy to do on in-line skates. Probably wouldn’t do it again
We parked at Alvin Ward Park in Moore Haven. The trail is attached to the parking area. The park has a good parking lot with bathrooms and boat ramp. The trail is a nice flat asphalt on top of the dike. We saw a lot of wildlife on our ride including alligators, armadillos, quail, blue herons, 3 bobcats, seagulls, hawk, ducks and buzzards. We rode almost 12 miles to Clewiston Picnic Area at Herbert Hoover Dike and then turned around and return back to Moore Haven. The Clewiston picnic area has picnic tables along the water. I did not see any bathrooms December 2023
