3 star trail upgraded to 4 stars due to access to beaches via public access ways and state parks. Be sure to stop at Deer Lake State Park and walk your bike on the walkway through the dunes to the beach if it’s not too busy. Lots to see and enjoy, expect a rough trail through tourist beach towns with lots of bikes and pedestrians. North end trail is much smoother.
I spent the month of January, riding this trail. The area was a strange interface of crowded developments and state parks. There are many roads and driveways intersecting the trail. I imagine, at the height of the Spring Break Season, the crowds would be terrible.
Not a fan. Very busy because there is no place else to ride. Crosses driveways, roads, nothing to see of the coastline. The development is out of control. We turned around after about six miles and headed back to the state park.
It does not get much better than this, plenty of parking and access points, bathrooms clean and well spaced along the way, nice visitor center and plenty of benches to take a break if need be. 12' wide nice smooth paved trail, slight elevations, nice scenery. In town plan on some stops at road crossings but people are very bike friendly. There is a great bike store too along the downtown trail head if you need something. I just moved about 15 miles from this trail and will be using it often!
Wide for the most part, paved, water stops on east side section that is in town. Crosses a lot of driveways, both residential and commercial so you have to be aware of vehicles entering and leaving. The few miles on the eastern end are out of any residential or commercial development, At the eastern terminus of the trail there is a bike lane that begins on the road that you can ride another approximately 15 miles Navarre Beach.
Had a blast with my wife! Rode to Seaside for some good Greek food from one of the food trucks. Easy riding! If you want beach scenery you’ll need to leave the main trail. This is one we will do again. We rented our bikes from Rideit on Santa Rose ¿ Beach.
Took my dog with me and literally wore us both out. Very nice trail with lots of shade, flora and fauna.
Loved this ride-- rode it in late Feb, 70° and very little traffic through the national seashore portion. Loved the pristine dunes and having the ocean on one side and Santa Rosa sound on the other. Plenty of places to stop and rest or have a picnic.
The trail is narrow & crosses the road several times as it passes through beach towns on the Gulf of Mexico. The scenery is pretty decent. I rode it on a weekday in February & it was pretty busy. It's worth the time if you're in the area.
Left Rosemary Beach and headed west on Friday, February 2nd, 2024. Road and trail was completely closed around Mile 13..no way to detour…planning on 30 miles plus with lunch in Seaside..had to turn back. Deer Lake Park was worth the visit.
