Parked in the park on the South side of the bridge and started the trail from there. Road approximately 11 miles to Hastings. Turned right on Main Street and went about 2 blocks and ate lunch at Norma D’s. Great little local restaurant and the sandwiches were fantastic. Headed back the way we came. We had beautiful weather, 78 degrees and a slight breeze. Great ride!
It opened recently. Its a great trail to walk or ride. Some areas have a lot of people. Then from Fisherman's Village you can follow a trail thru Punta Gorda.
This trail is so great !!! Smooth. Beautiful scenery and some tree art work along the way !! I’m so happy the Pinellas has a connection to this trail now in Tarpon Springs ¿¿¿
This trail is great. Beautiful scenery, great downtown area, lots to do!
My husband and I rode this trail today (3-31-26) and had a great experience. The trail is well-maintained and the downtown area is so cute. We stopped a couple of times for lunch and coffee. I would highly recommend this trail. Beautiful trees and open spaces, with lots of rest stops throughout the ride.
Great trail for walking, jogging, rollerblading, and biking. You can access from Golden Gate Parkway, behind the zoo parking, or from Baker Park. Public restrooms plus parking at all three entrance points. Trail is primarily asphalt with some boardwalks. Starting at Baker park to Golden Gate Blvd, including the loop at the zoo parking then back to Baker will give you a good 5 mile walk.
Trails runs from Rattlesnake Hammock Rd at the south end to Radio Rd at the north end. Residential neighborhood backyards on either side. There is no shade, no bathrooms, and no water. Closest parking is the rear parking lot of the church on Rattlesnake. There is no parking at the Radio Rd entrance. Trail crosses Davis Blvd but there is a button activated light that stops traffic in both directions. Trail is good for walking, jogging, rollerblading, and biking. jogging, rollerblading, biking
Doesn’t show all bike trails. In fact missing quite a few.
Nice trail, well maintained. It’s just so short, not worth unless you happen to be close.
Rode the WST for first time today. Started at the Owensboro trail head and rode 23 miles up to Floral City. So peaceful & quiet especially compared to Suncoast that we did earlier in the week. Was a very nice ride even though we did run into a couple of scary situations. Right where the good neighbor trail intersects with the WST there was a rattle snake on the pavement. Very thankful to the rider that came off the GNT and stopped and pointed it out to us. Without his heads up I likely would have ran over it. The 2nd scary event was coming back to the trailhead we had started at. Somewhere between mile 1 & 2 there were 2 large black dogs that came out of the woods and started going after my wife. Fortunately, I heard her screaming and looked back. 2 dogs chasing her and 1 of them was at her ankles. She got away by having to hit the throttle on the e-bike. Be aware.
I was visiting my friend and Palakta is her home. I started trail at Hitchcock’s grocery store because best place to park to get right on trail. From this location it was 19.3 miles to end of trail. There is one restroom along the way and it’s about 16 miles. There is the town of Hastings that has restaurants etc. and it’s about 8 miles from Palakta. Once at the end of trail, it just ends and you will see the railroad track and that’s it. You are not in the city of St. Augustine. There is no bench or anything.
