This section has been open for a year or two now (June 2020) and is excellent condition all along following the power lines. Approximately 4 miles long end to end with nice smooth black top ideal for cycling, now also attracting walkers, skaters etc. There are footpaths into the adjacent woods.
There is a car park at the Wayland end easily accessible from the intersection of rte 126 and 27. At the eastern end the last access point is at Church Street, Weston. Further east it just dead ends at a decrepit bridge.
The actual bike path, itself, is just a bit over 11 miles. The southern end starts at Blackstone Valley Prep high school in Cumberland. The northern end starts in Woonsocket near Mendon rd. It does connect to the East Bay, but it is about 7 miles of street in between Cumberland and Providence.
I enjoyed this bike trail with my Brandon. IT was really nice.
I went down to the Cape from Boston. Apple Maps put me in South Dennis to start. I was able to find a spot right away, although the lot was close to full. I quickly came across the first intersection of many where the path crosses the road cars drive on. That happens about 10-15 times in the first twelve miles. The path itself is pretty well maintained. I stopped at mile 12 to go to the beach, mainly because I couldn’t find the trail and the beach was close by. And the beach has bike lockers. After a quick dip, I turned around and came back. Lastly, I averaged 15mph on my bike and no one passed me. That’s just to say it’s more casual.
I’ve lived just over the border of MA my whole life and never knew about this trail. Really lovely hidden gem! Particularly for walking since it’s only 3 miles, but there were many bikers that passed by. Would recommend to anyone considering a visit. It’s shaded and flat.
Very few people which is a big plus in the time of COVID-19. Beautiful views of waterfowl. Nice paths to walk or bike off-road also!
Very well paved, very pretty, and almost empty, which is a big plus in the time of COVID-19.
Really a wonderful ride. Took off one star because it's pretty heavily trafficked, which is a drawback in the time of COVID-19.

I rode the South Bay Harbor "Trail" today. This is a biking route, but *not* a trail. At least half of its length is on sidewalks (some in poor shape), streets (some very busy streets!), and at least one set of stairs. I didn't see a single directional marker after the first few hundred feet. (This was my second attempt at riding it. The first time I lost the route and gave up.) I started at the Fan Pier end. Because one long stretch is on a very busy two-lane, one-way street, I can't imagine how to ride it the other way. I hope this is a work in progress because it is a good route, it's just not a trail... yet.
Awesome trail to walk I walk there every day nice and peaceful I like all the different sounds nature,traffic nice people on trail a lot of regulars so on the way you meet new friends best trail ever
