Trail was in very good to excellent condition. The boardwalks are starting to show some wear. You can ride to the far southern end of Mashes Sand Beach for some beautiful views.
I did 16.4 miles today on my bike. I started at Ochlocknee Bay and rode up to Medart (8.2 miles). I had lunch at Hamaknockers BBQ and rode back to the car. The trail is very good. You end up on the side walk or street as you pass through Panacea and must cross Hwy 98. It is fine as long as you’re careful. I would be a little nervous with smaller kids, but I really enjoyed the ride and the BBQ was excellent.
Yes there are many crossings throughout the 3 miles…maybe 4 or so crossings but a quiet easy ride. There was a bike fixing station next to a water fountain along the ride that my husband used to tighten his brakes which was making a loud noise. This was cool. We parked at the Ray Wishart Trail Head 2919 US-231, Panama City, FL
Great trail, allow plenty of time to explore as much of the trail as possible. Different terrains to keep the trail exciting. Went in November so the weather was great and it wasn’t crowded at all. We parked at the Frank Brown Park for free and had a nice ride before we made it to the conservatory. There’s trailhead parking closer to the conservatory by the bathrooms but not as much parking.
3 star trail upgraded to 4 stars due to access to beaches via public access ways and state parks. Be sure to stop at Deer Lake State Park and walk your bike on the walkway through the dunes to the beach if it’s not too busy. Lots to see and enjoy, expect a rough trail through tourist beach towns with lots of bikes and pedestrians. North end trail is much smoother.
but is too short. I rode from Hwy 231 entrance crossing several streets including Hwy. 77, and they were all safe. The paintings on the walkway near the Hwy 231 entrance are entertaining. Met joggers, bicyclists and others walking. Hope the trail will be completed all the way to old oil terminal soon.
I spent the month of January, riding this trail. The area was a strange interface of crowded developments and state parks. There are many roads and driveways intersecting the trail. I imagine, at the height of the Spring Break Season, the crowds would be terrible.
It's a nice little trail, or could be, but it's obvious that the town has just let it deteriorate - Watch out for broken down edges, and bad root heaves.
The bridge at the Sam Atkins park (north end) is permanently barricaded, and looks like it's been like that for a couple of years.
If you want to ride the trail, start at the Neal Landing (south) end, at the riverside park, and ride north a couple miles, to dead end at the closed bridge.
At this point, I think the trail is mostly just used by locals, as a shortcut through town.
Not a fan. Very busy because there is no place else to ride. Crosses driveways, roads, nothing to see of the coastline. The development is out of control. We turned around after about six miles and headed back to the state park.
I really enjoyed this trail. Lots of different entry points and nice wide trail. A few streets to cross but they are spaced out. Will be riding here more
This is a really great idea but not a great design. I've used other rails to trails and this one is paved. Some are not. The problem with this one is there are too many streets to cross. Depending on which trail head you park at you have to cross East Ave, Mosley Dr., 26th St., Minnesota Ave,, Timbers Crossing, Hwy 77, and one or two more. It's only a 3.1 mile trail from end to end. I use it a lot on my bicycle and walking and I'm surprised no one has been hit by a car yet. (Or at least I haven't heard of any crashes) There are crosswalks and yield signs as well as stop signs but many vehicles don't stop for pedestrians or bicycles in the crosswalk so USE CAUTION at the crossings. I'm sure it's safer on the trail than it is on our roads, I have lived here for 25 years and this really is a nice trail I just wish the road crossings were safer.
