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.
This is not a trail. This is a bike lane on a two lane road on a busy barrier island. In snowbird season it is more crowded with cars.
About 2 of the 6 miles are decent for inline skating. The rest is tolerable, but it's in need of resurfacing.
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
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.
It’s worth the fee for crossing over the causeway! There are parts that wind through the subdivisions and parts that ride along a very busy road- but riding safely on the trail. We’ll definitely return for another ride! Several public accesses to beaches. It’s a beautiful island!
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!
It’s a natural extension off the Legacy trail. Good pavement, well traveled. Highly recommended!
Nicely paved, several street crossings. There and back 16+ miles. Great ride!
Great trail, tremendous trail, believe me! You can ask anyone, the trail is one of the best! I’ve been on many trails, this one is tremendous.
Parking, water, and restrooms are available at the South Trailhead at 14608 Ben C Pratt Six Mile Cypress Parkway (the trailhead is shown on the map but parking, etc, are not indicated). On the Apple Maps app, put in “Daniel’s Buckingham Trail” to see the location of the Daniel’s Parkway dirt parking area. To cross Daniel’s Parkway go west to the first traffic light and use the crosswalk.
