We took our bikes over to Marthas Vineyard on the Steamship Authority ferry out of Woods Hole on May 5, 2026. We had parked for free 3.5 miles up the on the Shining Sea Bike path in Falmouth. We landed in Vineyard Haven at 11:30am and made our way from the ferry to the Forest Bike loop. It was 3 miles from Ferry to the path. We walked our bikes for the first half mile to get out of the downtown traffic as the sidewalks were quite narrow. Once we got rolling it took us about half hour to get to the start. Once on the path it was quite easy to follow the loop. We went past the airport and many fields and secluded homes. We brought our own food and water, but there was a convenience store at the airport on the first stretch on Barnes road. It was about 63 degrees out with stiff winds of 20+ miles per hour that the trees helped to minimize. The path was good in most places with some cracks in the asphalt that we tried to navigate around. Some rolling hills along the way, which we walked up a couple to avoid over doing our knees. It was a beautiful Tuesday afternoon and we only saw one other bike and 3 people walking in our 10 mile loop. The ride back to the ferry was far easier than the ride out as it was mostly downhill. I rated the ride a 4 of 5 only because it was a bit difficult to get from the ferry to the bike path, other than that it was a great paved trail.
Came here for my first skating trail as a beginner it was great! Lots of sticks around so beware of your step but other than that will be coming here a lot more! Loved it
This trail needs open parking spaces! Most of the parking spots are blocked off!
don't see bathroom in the parking lot
Nice short trail with beautiful views and an interesting history. If you’re biking, keep your mouth closed or you might ingest a fly in some spots.
If you notice the RTT Map you will notice the island bike path is badly fragmented. A Bike Path ends & no signage to show where it picks up again. It will spit you out on a busy highway making it a nerve racking ride not knowing how long you will be in the middle of the busy highway. Be safe!
This is a multi use bike trail for everyone to enjoy.
This is a good trail, but if you start in Milford and do the entire checkmark there are a lot of street crossings. The pretty parts of the trail are nice and shady and wooded, but there is a fair amount of commercial areas that you have to get through. It’s nice and flat and there are lots of parking areas along the way. My gps did not take me to a parking lot but when I put the trail into AllTrails I got accurate directions.
Did this in August. The trails are well kept, a bit challenging but the views are incredible! You can ride right into ptown and avoid parking hassles and expense.

The Mrs and I rode this beautiful trail from North Hampton to just short of Belchertown, and back.
The weather was great and the trail is mostly shaded, so the ride was superb.
I'd have no objection to doing it again.
