Rode from Palatka to where the trail crosses Vermont Rd about 1.5 miles from trail end. In general, the trail was very good to excellent condition, with the usual root protrusions under the tree canopy . My only real complaint is that there was no signage coming out of Palatka, and no mileage signage at all.Lo
Loved this trail. Overall, I would rate the pavement quality as being very good. Yes there are some bumps and lumps, but that is to be expected when you’re riding deep under tree canopy. And yes, there are some hills! But this is central FL! expected for Central Florida.
Saw tons of wildlife, trail is in great condition….a true gem for Pam Coast.
This is great, long trail, especially for biking. However, it would be even more perfect if they’ll be more twist and more entries because it’s a bit long for walk or ride.
This trail was perfect for a gentle ride with my 11-year-old granddaughter, who has never been on a longer trail. Flat, smooth surface. We parked at Otis Road and went a few miles toward Baldwin.
I started the trail in Hamilton. It is paved from there. Unfortunately no good parking. Very smooth and a lot of shade. Road just over 40 miles in July. Would definitely recommend. Needs more parking areas and places to take a break.
We love this trail and take the day to stop at all the different places to enjoy the trail even more!
Awesome trail. Great place to bike and enjoy the sites. Just needs more critters 🐿¿.
My wife and I took a three week bike trip in late winter 2025 and did 10 trails in 5 different states and the Marjorie Harris was by far the best trail of the trip. It didn’t hurt that the weather was perfect with sunshine and 73 degrees. But the trail was in great shape with plenty of small ups and downs and turns through beautiful wooded areas. It was mid week so not too busy with other riders, but the trail is nice and wide so oncoming and passing is not a problem. It did look like a popular spot for club riders though. Lots of incumbents. People were friendly. The only negative….it’s too short. We would have done 20 miles if the MH ran that far. So ride, don’t walk and put this trail on your bucket list.
I ride this trail 3-5 times a week. It’s smooth and has shade and bathrooms and great parking.
We got to the trailhead on Colbert Lane today and as we drove by the entrance to the trail it was all blocked off. When we got to the trailhead where we would park our cars, there was no indication that the trailhead was closed or where you could go to get on it. There’s also no indication as to how long this would be closed. I understand the bridge is out.
