Started at main parking lot at Riverbend Park off Indiantown Rd. You want to follow the Ocean to Lake Trail on the east side of the park to the intersection of Grove Traik near the equestrian trail. Go around the orange metal gate and over the bridge to access Bluegill to Trail. Riding this to PGA and then looping back is just over 14 miles. Nice quiet ride with a bit of nature. They have removed the water fountain from the PGA rest area so bathrroms are available there but no potable water.
Fun to see people, beach and more. Concrete but cute ride.
Every 10 minutes had to stop and navigate through super busy intersections, I'll never come here again. Even had to ride in the shoulder of the highway for five minutes and one text, cars going by doing 70 not good
When I decided to start walking again as my body started to heal from Epstein-Barr virus I discovered they put this path down across the street from my house basically. I used to work Hiatus Road before any work was done then it got obliterated by a new road and a lot of trees. Now I take my daily power walk on the greenway and I'm doing over seven miles total daily. It's a very peaceful path with lots of nature to experience, wide open and welcoming. Plus, I almost see no one.
The path is fairly easy, solid sand and shell rock with small rocks sticking out just enough to "annoy" your bottom a bit. Don't need a fat bike, normal tires will do fine. One way is 5.5 miles; so 11 miles if you make it back to where you started. The trail has not a single curve; it's not a lot to see riding along the canal, so it's really not that exciting to ride along.
This is a terrible trail if you are actually planning for a long bike ride. I almost died twice, which did get my heart racing, but not in the way I expect from an exercise session. First, the trail is supposed to be 6.5 miles long, but it's cut into segments of about a mile, each one ending with a major road to cross. This wouldn't be so bad if it only meant waiting for a light and crossing the street, but the problem is that the trail doesn't pick up right on the other side, and the signage is pretty poor. That means that when you come to the end, you have to sort of look up and down the road to figure out where the next part is. I was specifically looking to work on speed, so stopping to scan the horizon every three to four minutes is very annoying. The only time you don't have to cross a street is where there is an underpass, which is the first place I almost died. The clearance is only 5'5", and the sign is not only really close to the actual death trap, but also hard to see at 15-20 mph. I was nearly decapitated. Even worse, the underpass itself is filthy and seedy, so a pretty scary place to ride. A really great place to shoot a horror film, if your equipment is under 5'5". The other hazard is the spots where there are unexpected disruptions in the path, like tree roots tearing up the paving or a SET OF STAIRS AT THE END OF THE DARK SPOOKY UNDERPASS. In both places, I barely escaped tearing the front wheel off my bike. All in all, the trail is dangerous and frustrating. I give it a 0/10. Would not ride again. I gave it one star because negative stars is not a thing.
Free 2 hour parking on the street, BESIDE Flagler Museum. Trail is marked in that area but signage when riding it is overall poor. There are a few " breaks" in the trail but it goes from Worth Ave on the south to the Inlet on the north.
It follows ( usually right on the water) of Lake Worth (the intercostal waterway). If you loose track of the trail because of no signs, just continue to take streets toward the intercostal and the trail will re-appear.
It is about 5.5 miles long. It ends before the Inket but a couple blocks of back streets will get you there. There is a drinking fountain at the Inlet (dock) but no public restrooms anywhere. Where the trail crosses Poinciana Blvd. there is a shopping complex (look for the valet parking). In that complex is a deli called Too-Jays Deli. You can eat lunch there and use the restrooms.
The 2 hour parking time is plenty of time to ride the whole trail.
We rode this trail from Hiatus west to the terminus on the far side of Markham Park, through the park, and back again, about 18 miles. The Good: The trail itself is wonderful-paved, landscaped, benches, wildlife (iguanas, waterfowl, turtles), away from the road and heavy traffic. If you go as far west as possible, you hit L-35, the levee trail on the edge of the Everglades that goes north to Loxahatchee. The Bad: as others have already said, every 1-2 miles, the trail comes to a major road crossing and you must go 50 yards or so off the trail to the intersection and cross, carefully, with the crossing signal. The Ugly: the fat lady in her $60,000 Lexus SUV who cut us off as we crossed at a signal, and waved at us as she boogied down the road. Bottom Line: we enjoyed the trail in spite of itself. We enjoyed all of the good things it had to offer and tolerated the bad. We will go back again, but we will not recommended the trail to our friends because it is dangerous and somewhat of a pain to bike.
The trail is amazing. Very smooth compared to the bike trail that runs along US1. There is a foul smelling part as you get closer to Blackpoint Marina, but it is bearable. I have seen a lot of Iguanas, especially once you cross Quail roost headed north. Also, where this trail finishes you can go to Larry and Penny Park and ride there. I will say the shadiest part of the trail is when you are approaching US1 from the west side. Had someone try to come up on me, but I am not sweet. Take a knife, or if you have your CCW, you should carry. The only light that works for crossing is the one on 127 ave and 112 ave (Allapattah).
It's much longer than described. I passed a farmers market on Sunday and a luxury RV park. The sun was shining. The birds were flying. Stunning nature and scenery. The path is a very smooth ride. I continued to ride it east up mcnab. I made it to powerline ........and then could not find the signs. I'm hoping it goes all the way to federal highway.
There is no trail, where there once was a nice one. Years ago I traversed it successfully, but today only a few miles of it are open. Sections were to be worked in a bit at a time, originally. However, when a new section has begun construction other sections are not re-opened. 30 mile sections are shut down for two miles worth of construction. By the time the construction is finished most of us will not be around to enjoy the trail. I'm sure we will all be safer as a result of today's version of messing with nature to "improve" nature is complete. According to projections, the dike will be complete and reopened when sea level has risen above it.
