We rode the full counter-clockwise loop starting from the Jekyll Island Campground on the north end. The paved trail is well-maintained and clearly marked for most of the route. Note that once you cross the main causeway road toward the southern end of the island, the path transitions to packed sand and can be a bit confusing to navigate — we went in a circle before finding our way! It's fun, but worth knowing ahead of time. There are plenty of great food stops along the way. Jekyll Island rewards the riders who slow down, look up at the Spanish moss, wander through history, and let the ocean breeze set the pace.
Beach Riding: The hard-packed sand just north of the Beach Village area is rideable and highly recommended — but check tide charts before heading out. Timing matters.
Not crowded. Road and wood trails. Beach riding? Yes. Enter off of the soccer field complex - hard sand riding awaits. It’s our favorite island - nicer than Sanibel/Captiva and even Boca Grande.
Ride has it all, beaches, driftwood, marinas, spanish moss dripping all over the island.
I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of scenery while roller-blading this smooth trail. Keep a keen eye out for low hanging spiders’ nests! I passed about 4 or 5 of them. One of them, my hat caught the corner of it, and I took some of the web with me, lol! I started my journey at the Little Talbot Island State Park, where I parked my vehicle. I then proceeded north on the trail. I travelled all the way over the boardwalk, and then bridge to Amelia Island, then returned the way that I came.
Parking in Boneyard Beach was a plus, it’s gorgeous. The whole trail is pretty, you run into an abandoned part of the park and weave through shaded oak trees covered in Spanish moss. Partly shaded.
So it be really nice if they’d repair the bridge next to the highway.. I thought that was for pedestrians.. It’s an old road that crumbled and is blocked off. The trail is scenic for being in town. With that being said it’s very busy with intersections and cars!
This is one of the safest well maintained trails. Very few street crossings. Small parts of the trail borders roads but the traffic is minimal. We enjoyed this ride!
There is a bridge crossing over a River, where there were a couple of fisherman, but no other views on this rail trail. You definitely need hybrid or off road tires for the trail as some areas of crushed rock are not for leaner tires. Eventually, this 3mi trail is due to connect with the Satilla River Trail, and it will be a much more scenic trail, I feel,
Rode this combined with the Amelia Island Trail. Parked for free just over the bridge at the trailhead lot. There are no bathrooms nor was there water. The trail goes through the beach parking lot on a separate path. It winds through the park after that. It is wide with few crossings, though there are some blind turns. The surface was very nice, and there are informational signs. To get to the Amelia Island trail you must cross a bridge shared with A1A. There is a bike lane on the bridge but on the southbound trip you have to cross A1A twice.
Rode this in conjunction with the Timucsn trail. We went straight at the turnoff toward’s Peter’s beach, following the sidewalk toward the airport for a mile or so. The trail crosses A1A a few times. Cars were very patient. The paved surface was ok with minor root damage. The sidewalk we did at the end was narrow and had some sandy spots. I would skip that if I did it again. There are places to stop to eat, a bike shop, etc. the trail is well shaded.
A fun skate trail to the Nassau sound. The Boardwalk at the end towards the sound is a bit difficult to skate but otherwise, it’s a good trail :) Beautiful views. Lots of ospreys out. Not too many people on a weekday afternoon. Little Talbot Island State Park was quiet and beautiful
