Tallahassee-St. Marks Historic Railroad State Trail

Tallahassee-St. Marks Historic Railroad Trail

October, 2024 by amy2paul

We rode the trail today October 7, 2024. We got on at the parking lot at 4778 Woodville Highway. Plenty of spaces to park. The trail is very level with nicely maintained asphalt. We even saw a man in a “Gator” vehicle blowing off the path and cleaning the bathrooms. It is almost completely shaded. You cross several small streets with almost no traffic. The path pretty much parallels the Woodville Highway but you don’t have any worries about traffic. I wish we had time to go further into town around the capital. Nice ride!

Lafayette Heritage Trail

Great location

May, 2024 by wayneredden

This park is connected to Tom Brown Park and JR Alford Park. Great place to walk or ride bikes. We rode E Bikes. Bathrooms, water fountain etc. Trails are marked, wide and somewhat smooth. There are exposed roots on some parts of the

Coastal Trail

Plenty of Distance

May, 2024 by evada

About a mile of sidewalk in Panacea. Trail proper picks up again at intersection with Division St (south bound), where there is "casual" parking across the street.

Coastal Trail

We really enjoyed riding this trail. Long spaces of curvy trail. I was confused in Panacea, FL, since there were several road crossings. Not much for shade. Plenty of gas stations on the route & a rest area when it intersects with St. Marks trail.

Tallahassee-St. Marks Historic Railroad State Trail

great trail!

February, 2024 by m6bm5rm6nh

We started at the St Marks trailhead with plenty of parking right on the waterway. The trail was nicely paved and safely away from the road. There was plenty of shade trees and bathrooms every few miles. We only rode 8 miles north and then turned back but I highly recommend this bike trail.

Blountstown Greenway Bike Path

Sad waste of a trail.

August, 2023 by jeffl90

This entire trail is about 6-7 miles. Completely gone to crap. Not maintained at all. The town takes great care of their little parks but the bike trail is garbage. Sides are collapsing and many heaves. Many crossing where you can get run over by people running the stop signs. On a special day you may find huge hogs standing you off. Bridge closed off for good. Parking is also very limited. Whoever runs this doesn’t care about it at all.

Coastal Trail

Thanks FLDOT, great trail

March, 2023 by 7cv5rqjbd8

We rode the trail from Panacea at a closed shopping center all the way to St Marks trail. Nice 18 miles one way. The trail was asphalt, great shape and recently mowed edges. Wish Ga had these trails near us. Very impressed!

Coastal Trail

Trail now completed through panacea

March, 2023 by jfletc3233_tl

The trail is now completed through panacea to the ochlockonee bay bridge. In the town of Panacea the trail turns into a sidewalk. But as the trail and sidewalk is new the ride is smooth. 36 of us rode the trail this weekend and thoroughly enjoyed being able to ride all the way from downtown Tallahassee to Sopchoppy without riding on the road. We now have four trails that connect together to make this possible. The capital cascades trail from down town Tallahassee meets up with the St Marks Trail which connects to the coastal trail. The coastal trail takes you all the way to the ochlockonee bay bridge where it meets the Ochlockonee Bay trail.

Coastal Trail

There are now 17 miles of trail completed. It stops just before Panacea. I would recommend starting early as there is very little shade. The trail is in excellent shape.

Ochlockonee Bay Trail

easy trail

January, 2023 by jillkswartz

Great ride fully paved and smooth and nice views. A couple neat boardwalks over marshy spots. put in at the dollar general in sopchoppy. Ride through the wildlife refuge, past the ochlocknee bay. You do have to cross highway 98 just before the last four miles of it. You will also run out of trail and have to share the road for about 500 ft before it picks back up, then just before mashes sand beach cross the road twice to stay on bike path and once at mashes share the road for about 500 more ft. For this reason alone I would not recommend kids riding with you… unless your confident they are capable …. be very careful crossing highway 98! All in all I did really enjoy this one it’s 12 miles one way. There were portable bathrooms at mashes beach.

Tallahassee-St. Marks Historic Railroad State Trail

A flat out and back

September, 2022 by robert.richter89

I began my ride at the North Trailhead in Tallahassee and ended almost 16 miles at the southern terminus in St. Marks. It was a very hot Labor Day but the trail is almost entirely shaded which provided relief from the sun. The trail is entirely paved, completely flat and well marked. There a few cracks in places that might give you a shake but won't cause you to pop a tire. There are many very small road crossing but I can count on one hand how many cars I encountered on them. The one or two larger road crossings were also very quiet. There are many shaded benches to rest and there are about three or four bathrooms along the trail but I can't comment on their condition.

My only complaint is the lack of scenery, its mostly flanked by small homes, brush and runs next to a residential street for the majority of the trail. St. Marks is a great little place to get something to eat along the river and enjoy a much deserved rest.

Miccosukee Greenway

A Gem!

July, 2022 by doubled3

Two of us rode on July 16th, 2022. This was our 2nd foray but this time we started at the parking lot on Fleischman Road. A wide packed gravel trail that is just hilly enough. There are a few open areas but 90-95 percent of the trail is shaded. We logged 14.8 miles on our out and back ride and did not go on any side trails - yet. Available toilet facilities were clean and in good repair. We look forward to riding here on our next visit. Do not depend on water fountains as anything can happen at any time. Bring plenty of water if it's summer. The temp when we returned to the car was 100 degrees F in the open parking lot. The shade on most of the trail made it comfortable to ride.
