It opened recently. Its a great trail to walk or ride. Some areas have a lot of people. Then from Fisherman's Village you can follow a trail thru Punta Gorda.
The paved trail is wide and accommodates its users. My running app indicated the distance is a bit less than 4.5 miles (closer to 4.1) but it was a nice way to spend the morning.
We rode this for the first time today. It was cooler outside so not too many people. It was beautiful!! Highly recommend if you’d like an easy ride.
I grew up driving over this bridge with my parents. It was great fun to ride my bicycle over it as an adult. We parked at Cooper’s Bayou just east of the bridge entryway—a good place to park and ride the entire trail. Whiskey Joe’s was a fun place to eat/drink. Be prepared for crowds there on good weather days. I will ride this trail again next year.
My brother in law and I rode this trail 2/23/26. We were in the area so hopped on the trail doing the loop from Bruce B Downs. Cold day but really enjoyed it. On our way back to Venice we stopped in Ybor and had lunch at the Columbia. Fun day.
Opinion: electric motor bikes and trikes should be banned from bicycle and pedestrian paths. Dangerous. Ridiculous. Why not just drive a car or truck on the road. What's your hurry anyway? Rode from terminus Sarasota to Scherer State Park and back, around 27 miles, completing the trail as we did the southern part a couple days earlier. Perfectly maintained wide paved rail trail, from city through suburbs, wild woods, and along intercoastal. Flat except from a few steep overpasses. Several crossings on the Sarasota half but well controlled by signals and warning lights. Not too crowded on a February weekday but probably gets busy. A couple of odd things: vast majority of vehicles are electric motor bikes and trikes, many of them ridden by people dressed as Amish. Some fat tired superfast dangerous electric motorbikes
Rode the path ,rode a gravel trail and grass trail . bogged out in the sand. Nature. Nice clean restrooms , water stations . Perfect day.
We rode from Oscar Scherer State Park to the south end of Venetian Waterway Park, about 19 miles round trip on mostly level (except for a couple steep overpass ramps) on perfectly paved surface, through tropical woods and along the intercoastal. Real nice in February. Probably very hot in summer. Only "complaint" is 90% electric bikes.
Great paved surface, used by riders and walker/runners. Nice and wide, well marked. A few road crossings with crossing signals and several “overpasses “ over really busy roads. Definitely worth the ride!
We just finished the Courtney Campbell Trail and it was a blast! Our first trip here and we loved it!
The trail was about 10’ wide And definitely no bathrooms. Very desolate very very few people around we went on a Saturday afternoon. Cloudy it probably would’ve been hot if the sun was out it was 75 and cloudy if you like cows and trees you would enjoy it. We went about 7 miles and turned around. We sort of liked this path but other than that it was boring I thought and so did my wife. We started on the south end by Auburndale Trail and continued on to this trail about
