Once we figured out how to access the trail from the trailhead (hint.. it's tucked in right at the railroad tracks), we proceeded on to enjoy the beauty of this trail. As a first timer to the Cape, this trail showed me all I had hoped to see and experience. From woods, to murals, to water features, the rock beach and then finally the ferry, I was in awe the entire ride. You will find some tree root areas to be aware of and it's a busy path in many places but so worth it.
Although not as scenic as I had hoped it would be, it’s a nice enough trail. It can be busy with walker, runners and bicyclists of all ages. Many places that cross over roads but drivers seem to adhere to signs to watch for pedestrian and bike traffic. Trail is well marked as far as signage goes. There is one section that goes on a regular road for a short time but there is a bike lane and good signage to follow. Trail is largely shaded by tree canopies.
My 6 and 9 year old grandsons rode the 2.5 round trip with maybe 100 feet of walking their 20” mt bikes over rough spots and a couple of logs. The trail is 95% shaded. We parked on Breck Rd and crossed Thacher Rd to the trailhead. Lafayette Rd has a large circle at its end by Pope’s Pond that you clearly can park at.
We rode this August 6th 2026, started at 66 veterans memorial parkway instead of India point park ! SO much better. No porta potty’s anywhere to be seen, stopped at the stop and shop for Bathrooms ! Trails were great, although not used to having Bicycles stay Right and runners and walkers to the left… kind of Chaotic at times even mid week mornings Overall a great day !
I rode round trip from Mansfield to Norton which was 14 miles. It’s an absolutely beautiful trail, perfect for solo riders, couples, and families. Crossings are well marked and vehicles tend to stop immediately. Kids and adults might enjoy a detour to the airport in Mansfield. And ending in downtown Mansfield provides opportunity for a snack or beverage as there are several options readily available.
Parked at Herring Cove Beach for free with our America the beautiful Senior lifetime pass. What an amazing trail! We got an early start so we did not encounter very many people at all. It was a brilliant cool summer morning on a beautiful trail. Up there as one of the best trails we’ve ever done and we ride all over the country. Of course we wouldn’t do it if we didn’t have an E bike being seniors, but it was a piece of cake. Beautiful scenery ranging from sand dunes to deep forest! 12.6 miles total for the day with a few side trips. We later took our chairs to the beach at the opposite end of the parking lot and watched seals playing and the tide go out for an amazing day. I would put pictures up, but it seems very difficult to get a picture on this site. Don’t miss this one!
From EBBP over mostly dedicated path or protected bike lanes:
Over Washington Bridge thru India Pt Park;
Under I-195 along S. Water St. crossing Wickendon St. onto bike path along Providence River;
Cross Michael S. Van Leesten Memorial (pedestrian) Bridge over river then head west uphill along Ship, Chestnut then Clifford Streets;
Clifford St over I-95 bridge, onto Friendship St downhill then left onto Broad;
Along Broad then right onto Peace St (next to St. Joseph's Med Ctr);
Peace turns into Waverly. Waverly left onto Cranston St.;
Cranston St. (unprotected) under Rte10 then left onto Depot St.;
Arrived!
Cranston St is very busy with moving and parked cars and peds. An alternative bypass: along Peace St as above, but at Dexter St crossing where it turns to Waverly, turn left onto Dexter. Then right onto Waldo St, down to the second side street left onto Brattle St; this tees into Potters Av (busy!), quick dogleg right/left onto Homestead Av, (which tees into) turn right onto Huntington Av. A few blocks later, you reach Cranston St. at the Rte 10 underpass; then continue as before. Note: the northbound Huntington Av here is a quiet side road after it splits from the main northbound side Huntington Av highway.
The path now continues west across the Kickemuit River over the so-called "Broken Bridge", which has been replaced (see: https://www.dot.ri.gov/projects/BrokenBridge/index.php). However, it is still a pain to get from there to the celebrated East Bay Bike Path, less than a mile west.
From the East Bay Bike Path heading east, turn onto Franklin Street (a cross street), arrive at Metacom Av, which is very busy but thankfully has aided crossings. In the future, one might continue east down Libby Lane. But for now, turn left onto Metacom Av (sidewalk) heading north, turn right onto Child Street (sidewalk), then right onto West Street. At its end, you'll see the bridge down River View Street.
My wife and I stayed in Woods Hole, and we biked from there to Falmouth center almost entirely via this bike path. Absolutely beautiful! It's well-maintained and is packed with gorgeous scenery. At one point, you're so close to the beach that the sand comes right up to the trail itself! Shortly north of there, depending on what time of year it is, you'll get a nose full of the amazing smell of concord grapes all along the path. I can't wait to go back and travel the entire trail.
This was such a beautiful ride. Didn’t mind the small section of gravel. Wish users were a little more courteous, don’t leave dog poop filled bags on trail, (there were a few on path ¿), and if you’re scootering by, please slow down or give verbal warning. Two scooters raced by me and I had not heard them coming. It was alarming how fast they were going. Most users were very friendly and courteous. I appreciated that.
Trail was asphalt and exceptionally well maintained. At intersections, drivers in cars were most courteous I'd ever seen. Cars stopped to let bikers across; sometimes even when light was green. Heading West is a slight uphill, which makes return trip exceptionally easy. My daughter and I enjoyed many bridge crossing. Stopping at one bridge we encountered a resident feeding turtles off the bridge; carp on the Pawtuxet river took some meant for turtles. There were many nice graphics at stops explaining Coventry and other industrial towns along the way. Many beautiful old brick mill building were seen also. We passed three ice cream places, General store, and a tavern. Ride was quite beautiful and treed.
