Overview
The Lynn Haven Rail Trail is a paved 3.1-mile multiuse trail that provides opportunities for both recreation and connection in the city of Lynn Haven.
About the Route
From its northern end by the intersection of FL-390/W 14th St & Georgia Ave, the rail-trail runs southeast through trees and scrub to its southern end on US Hwy 231.
The northern trailhead is named after the former Lynn Haven Commissioner Frances Wittkopf. The southern trailhead at Highway 231 is named after Ray Wishart, a retired Mosley High School educator.
Dogs are allowed on the trail.
The Lynn Haven Rail Trail runs between the intersection of FL-390/W 14th St & Georgia Ave and US Hwy 231 in Lynn Haven.
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.
Our first trail rode. Well designed path. Will ride again.
