This trail was perfect for a gentle ride with my 11-year-old granddaughter, who has never been on a longer trail. Flat, smooth surface. We parked at Otis Road and went a few miles toward Baldwin.
I started the trail in Hamilton. It is paved from there. Unfortunately no good parking. Very smooth and a lot of shade. Road just over 40 miles in July. Would definitely recommend. Needs more parking areas and places to take a break.
I ride this trail 3-5 times a week. It’s smooth and has shade and bathrooms and great parking.
There really wasn't any good parking at the north end of this trail so I went down to the south end where is a nice park and hiking trails. The bike trail starts out good, looks newer, wide and smooth. However in the 5 miles I road north, there not only is construction going on at most of the intersections, the intersections are 4-6 lanes and not always do the buttons to get the walk signal worked. Not real safe. I don't recomment it, at least starting from the south trailhead. Mayby at the north going south is better....
Beautiful April day in Florida. Drove to this trail and the park the description says to park at was closed today (?) so I parked across the Kingsley on a side street, about 3 blocks from the trail.
The trail is a nice with rolling rise and falls, almost exactly 4.5 miles to the end where the road makes a right. There are alot of side strets that T into the road next to the trail but they it was not busy at all. Not a terribly long ride but a nice one!
Parking in Boneyard Beach was a plus, it’s gorgeous. The whole trail is pretty, you run into an abandoned part of the park and weave through shaded oak trees covered in Spanish moss. Partly shaded.
So it be really nice if they’d repair the bridge next to the highway.. I thought that was for pedestrians.. It’s an old road that crumbled and is blocked off. The trail is scenic for being in town. With that being said it’s very busy with intersections and cars!
This is one of the safest well maintained trails. Very few street crossings. Small parts of the trail borders roads but the traffic is minimal. We enjoyed this ride!
We rode the trail from the Florahome trailhead to the Keystone Heights trailhead. This section of the trail is paved, smooth, and well maintained. The keystone Heights trailhead is a little off as it’s basically in between a Wendy’s and a CVS store in the dude of a major highway. Before Keystone Heights, the trail goes primarily through trees and wetlands. There is spotty shade in some spots but otherwise full sun. It’s not a trail for summer time.
There is a bridge crossing over a River, where there were a couple of fisherman, but no other views on this rail trail. You definitely need hybrid or off road tires for the trail as some areas of crushed rock are not for leaner tires. Eventually, this 3mi trail is due to connect with the Satilla River Trail, and it will be a much more scenic trail, I feel,
I am an inline speed skater and a road bike cyclist. I have been skating and biking in over 10 states. This is so far the best trail I have ever been — over 90% distance is shaded, 10 feet wide, most times is very clean, and not hilly at all.
