This trail is destroyed and needs to be repaved. Impossible to skate safely
Easygoing, well traveled trail through beach cities with easy access to barrier Island causeways. Plenty of places to grab a meal near the trail. We tried and enjoyed Salty, Lime Cantina. Causeways provide stunning views of the harbor and were a highlight when we left the trail.
Don't get run over by all the nasty gulf carts flying by...
We've ridden this trail for more than 20 years. Wildlife is a little more sparse these days, although we did see a deer and a turkey last week. It's a 7 mile one way loop (add 2 miles from the Bruce B Downs parking lot or 0.6 miles from the Morris Bridge Rd. entrance). It's in a fast growing area (New Tampa) but it doesn't take long to get away from civilization. There are some off road trails as well. It can get busy with fast riders and skaters. Parts of the main trail are going to need re-paving soon, but ample water stops and pleasant scenery make this one a lot of fun.
This is our first trail. It was quiet, peaceful & nicely paved. Friendly people walking & riding bikes.
Really pretty trail with great views and not too many inclines. Good workout but also super scenic and a great length. Highly recommend!
And the construction closure zones are quite large, IMO. Best stay off this trail in 2025 if you are biking and want to ride uninterrupted for more than 3 miles. 2 star rating as is, but I've done 15 miles o/b on this trail in the past rather enjoyed it.
The route I went on was siren, and well kept up. It's now ine of my favs. I wish it was closer to me. ¿
What a beautiful day on this part of the trail... well maintained, some many places to stop, site seeing, Sponge Docks, Monkey Farm, Shopping, Restaurants and libations.
The trail and the land needs to be cleaned up. The grass and weeds needs to mowed and garbage in the grass. The weeds are as high all along the trail by Trinity Blvd. You have a nice trail but the surrounding areas are filthy. It makes the homes /townhomes look shabby. How come Starkey doesn't have weekly maintaince on this empty lot???. She made promises when she was running telling us that this is going to be beautiful. Why not put some lights up for the darkness when walking or riding on this trail?????? The area around this trail is filthy and needs attention Asap!!!!!!
Parked at the Shamrock Nature Center. The waterway park trail south of the water meets the south end of the legacy trail. Ride north to Osprey Point trailhead, about half of the Legacy Trail. Trail is an excellent ride, very popular
