Well marked trail. Do have to cross over Drew St and 60, which can be a bit hazardous. Out in the open, no shade. Connects to the Ream Wilson Trail at the ballpark.
City/suburbia paved trail and also on road bike lanes both sides 4 of 10
Perfect trail for families with young children in their bikes
Nice flat trail. Lots of access points and bathrooms, benches, and picnic tables along the way. We didn't see very many people on a Saturday afternoon. We did see a gpher tortoise and black snake. No shade, wear your helmet/hat and sunscreen.
Great walk with wild life and excellent views of the rowing lake.
We rode this trail yesterday, and really enjoyed it, there really isn’t any place to park at the beginning of trail on the north side. You really have to go to the southern end of the island and use one of the parking areas there. It worked out fine though as it allowed us to also stop over to the beach when we were done. Much of the trail runs through the center of the island and it is nice because it doesn’t immediately border the road. However, it is pretty heavy with golf cart traffic so you have to watch out for the. We saw many Iguanas and a couple of turtles. We also took a little side trip out to a fishing pier where there was an old railroad and lots of people were fishing and then we also took a side trip through one of the neighborhoods at the very north end of the island where there are some very beautiful andexpensive homes.
Tampa Riverwalk is okay for walking, but anything else wouldn’t work out quite well. I scootered there and it was kinda hard with so many people walking around. It’s a high traffic area.
I travel the Florida rail-trails as a distance skater (I do quad & in-line). This trail is gorgeous ! Saw a bobcat on my way down to Venice. Started in downtown Sarasota and went the entire route to Venice’s Depot. Venice Depot is gorgeous …you cross over some water but it is amazing. Great trail surface. Beautiful scenery. Little elevation gain except two bridges near the Venice end. 10/10 recommend especially for fellow skaters
This trail is super scenic along the waterfront on the southern end and then hugs a semi-major road on the northern end. It’s an easy ride, very flat, and the path is paved and very large going both ways like a huge oversized sidewalk
Very short but sweet paved trail winding thru a little park. It’s a nice segway to the nearby Skyway Trail. Be sure and visit Mama Pearl’s for breakfast or a loaf of her famous banana bread, located just off the side of the park (she’s closed Mondays and Tuesdays).
Courtney Campbell trail is beautiful. It is long enough for most runs. The thing that's really great about it is i run a lot at night, and this trail is well lit at night.
