Not too crowded, even on a beautiful day during the winter ”season.” They need to find a better way to cross Daniel’s Parkway. Maybe an overpass or underpass. You have to pedal to the nearest traffic light and use the pedestrian cross light. Adds at least 1/2 mile to trip. I suggest you start from the parking lot on the north side of Daniel’s Pkwy, and just skip the southern mile. You’ll still get a nice 10 mile ride.
I started riding my bike at the Six Mile Cypress parking lot. When I got to Daniel’s road, I didn’t know where the trail went so I turned left. Then, you start running into busy intersections & a shopping center at Tamiami Trail Rd (Hwy 41). I turned around & went back to my car. Looking at the map now, I see that the trail continues north, past Daniel’s road, which is pretty wide. Not sure where you cross at. I’ll give it another try.
This was my first ride on this path in over twenty years with a e-trike and I think some of the people who ride e-bikes need to slow down. Some speed up the bike path at over twenty mile per hour and some do not even let you know that they pass you by with out a word or even ring the bell on their bike. I yell out passing on your left and even ring my bell,
The path is what it is a path to enjoy the day out in wonderful Florida.
We rode this trail yesterday, and really enjoyed it, there really isn’t any place to park at the beginning of trail on the north side. You really have to go to the southern end of the island and use one of the parking areas there. It worked out fine though as it allowed us to also stop over to the beach when we were done. Much of the trail runs through the center of the island and it is nice because it doesn’t immediately border the road. However, it is pretty heavy with golf cart traffic so you have to watch out for the. We saw many Iguanas and a couple of turtles. We also took a little side trip out to a fishing pier where there was an old railroad and lots of people were fishing and then we also took a side trip through one of the neighborhoods at the very north end of the island where there are some very beautiful andexpensive homes.
Did it with my dad and sister we absolutely loved it!! I will be doing it again
Beautiful southern end along the marsh. Well kept throughout with nice covered seating areas. The trail end wasn't clearly marked.
