My husband and I go every evening, we love it just wish it was longer. Also, the city should make a crosswalk to continue the trail crossing Saratoga.
There is a definite need for longer bike rides in Corpus Christi. There is a nice short ride on Oso Parkway from Weber to Staples and then to the Botanical Garden. Another nice ride is at the Oso Wetlands located at Holly and North Oso Parkway.
Stated at Ennis Joslin Road and rode north to downtown area. Wide bike lanes adjacent to 40mph traffic with considerate drivers. Nice parks along the way to ride through with our favorite being Cole Park, which had a nice pier you can walk on, no riding allowed.
The northern part of this route can be done on a segregated roadway away from vehicles, but you will move to roadway riding along the ocean side street. It’s been re-paved along major stretches, and has good bike lanes. Drivers are considerate of cyclists and give a good leeway for driving safety. The Texas A&M camper has a cycling pathway that goes around the campus and serves as a good way to reverse course and head back to the truck. Plenty of coastal parks to visit, as well as places to eat.
This is not a trail, it is merely a white line separating the rider from heavy, speeding fast traffic. There are no rumble strips or other safety measures for the biker. The small part closer to downtown has lots of foot traffic, people with dogs, kids etc.. that one has to be very careful off. It shouldn't be listed as a trail when its not.
1/226/21 Don’t do it. Major road construction underway, uncertain completion date.
started at the north end near the American Bank Center. dedicated bike/walking path along the waterfront until the southern end of Cole park where it ends at a 4 lane road. no sidewalk or protection from traffic so we turned around. total ride is about 10 miles round trip.
We parked in the southernmost parking lot & biked north. The 1st 3.5 miles is a bike lane with a few pull offs at parks. The northern part of the trail was much nicer. The bike lanes are fairly wide, but if you're like us & don't care for road riding i suggest you start at the North end.
I began a run at a North Beach hotel and ran over the the John F. Kennedy Memorial Causeway to link up with the Corpus "Bay Trail." I ran it for about 7 miles and will say that most of my time was spent on the asphalt of the bicycle lane. If I rated this a "trail" I'd give it as low scores as the others. But love the sights, sounds, smells, and "feel" of the ocean, even the unique urban/suburban qualities of this trail. True, the city and it's life is to one's immediate left or right (running to or from), but then the Gulf and it's wonders are on the other side. I love this town! I would hope I could one day live in Corpus, so naturally I'm biased. I did a 14 miles total today that brought me nothing but pure joy.
Just a heads up, this really isn't what I would call a "trail". It is going to be mainly sidewalk, some of it along the seawall, and some asphalt bike lanes. You will have the bay on one side and a busy/major, 4-lane thoroughfare on the other side the whole ride.
The portion from American Bank Center, all along the seawall, to the beach is quite busy and crowded, being mostly commercial. But it will thin out after Cole Park. Where it turns into Ocean Dr. and is residential, with lots of VERY nice, upscale homes. This is the nicer part of the "trail" to me.
I used to roller blade this area a lot years ago, but I don't visit the area often anymore. It is worth noting too, that this area is currently undergoing major changes. Shoreline Blvd., the street paralleling the first half of the ride, has been re-aligned and moved away from the "trail" for a stretch near the beach. Ocean Dr. is also being reconstructed, as it was in bad condition. Once all of this construction is clear, the area will be much nicer.
Still, I prefer to get out of the city-scape for my rides & runs. So, this is too urban for me to really enjoy.
Nice paved trail with plenty of bird species for viewing. Very scenic area.
