For me, who is afraid of heights, this was a bit difficult. It is slightly elevated and no railings. The surface is smooth, nice, easy to ride bike on. Going north-south, turn right at the neighborhood. Rode this Sunday lunchtime. Fair amount of runners, cyclists, and pedestrians. Everyone was considerate to each other.
It is a neat clean little bike trail. It is not very long but, is a nice place to ride. It is not super intuitive when you cross streets. Be sure to look for the small blue & white signs that help direct you when you cross streets
This trail is currently closed from the North Beach entrance (near Metrolink) to the Portal Ave entrance. A series of rain induced land slides over the past few years took out a foot bridge and also damaged the railroad tracks. The trains have periodically halted and restarted but that portion of the path has been kept closed. May 2024 repair of the foot bridge has finally started. In 2023 the City of San Clemente passed bike restrictions for the trail. No bikes on the path near the Pier during summer season and peddle assist has been banned year round. Sadly the poor actions of a few bikers forced this restriction. That said, it’s a beautiful to walk. (5 stars) You are better off riding the well marked bike paths through town and visit either Dana Point Harbor or head south to the surfing spots of Trestles and San Onofre.
We are at the northern section on of the trail that stands alone. Will be great if ever connected to the longer southern section. We are staying at Rancho Jarupa RV Park (great place). You can ride 2 miles right out of the park along a peaceful street/turn right at the signal on the sidewalk of the bridge over the river to the dog park. From there you can go 10 miles to the south end of the trail. It does follow the river but lots of areas need clean up of dead trees etc but still a great ride. (Not much bothers us). Some homeless camps by the water in one area but no bother.
I away used to ride this trail ever since a couple months ago
Took the path from LA sierra to Main Street and back. Around 11 miles, it's pretty easy. No hills. 9/26/24
I enjoy this out and back I stay at Oceanside North Harbor and it's just a great ride
My wife and friends have enjoyed this path a couple of times. It offers a rear view of the city. Traffic is minimal- a great Beginner Trail. The very west part off the trail has a homeless camp but again, a different view or aspect of life. I personally did not feel threatened but a female friend felt intimidated. I would highly recommend for new bikers or walkers / runners.
Started to get bored so I bought myself a bike, I came out here to these trails, first I started from fairmount park in riverside and made my way north on the trail from there made it to the 10 freeway and back with no problems other than the heat( carful out there guys take water), as for the other bikers, all out there you’ll see them remember to say hello ! There were homeless on the trail next to the river but I had no issues with them. Definitely five stars from me, mostly because there was a vast distance to cover and I got the workout I needed, coming back for sure!
Great location but an overwhelming amount of homeless along the route. Alot of places smell like piss or weed. Better to look for another trail
New experience after all these years of cycling and blading. Went with family to ride bicycles. We start behind county records located at 222 Hospitality Ln. Too many homeless with dogs. A white dog chased us on the bike trail between county records and industrial buildings next door. It's worse on the weekends. Apparently, the homeless know that there is no security at night and on the weekends. Do not leave your car there.
