I rode the southernmost 15 miles which starts in Owensboro, near Dade City. There’s a dirt parking lot there, but no restroom. The trail is smooth asphalt about six feet wide. Beyond that there are trees on both sides. At some points you can see thru the trees and see some ranch like land until you get into the Withlachoochee State forest. About 5 miles into the ride there is a restroom stop. At about 11.4 miles the asphalt gets older and a bit rougher but still is good- no tree roots or potholes. There is limited shade. At mile 15 we got off the trail and had lunch at Brees Riverside cafe. shade
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.
We rode the trail around Dunedin area to Clearwater and on over to Clearwater Beach. We also rode from Dunedin North to Palm Harbor area. The Dunedin area has lots of places to eat/drink right off the trail. Mileage markers are not easily visible. The 20 MPH limit is ignored by cyclists and other people on various wheeled creations. “On your left” isn’t followed either.
My friend and I rode this trail during our February visit to the area. It does get a little confusing down below the city library, but we were able to navigate over to the circular path leading across the water to Clearwater Beach. A beautiful view and a fun ride.
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!
