A single of Florida's most widely used urban trails, the Fred Elizabeth. Marquis Pinellas Trail runs 34 miles on an forgotten CSX railroad right-of-way from downtown St. Petersburg north to Tarpon Springs. This kind of paved 12-14 base wide trail hosting companies over 90,000 surfers each month.
Recognized because a National Recreation Trail, the Pinellas Trail passes through communities both urban and quaint, passing county parks, residential and coastal regions. In 2008, a a couple of.5 mile extension linked the trail with downtown St. Petersburg; future extensions will extend the trail to 47 miles (thereby passing the Withlacoochee Trail as Florida's longest).
Popular with walkers, joggers, cyclists and in-line skaters, the Pinellas Trail will be often used by commuters. A series of bridges over busy intersections in the southern section of the trail affords safe and sound passage to the rider, while offering raised views of urban landscapes. Proceeding northbound, organic locations include reside oaks hung with Spanish moss, waterways and tidal basins, along with many types of birds.
The southern terminus in the Pinellas Trail is truly at the intersection of 1st Ave. Ersus. and Bay Shore Dr. in old downtown St Petersburg. Just across Bay Shore Dr. is actually Demens Landing Park. A short ride through the park takes the rider to your wonderful view of Tampa Bay. The trail ends north of Tarpon Springs, running parallel to US 19, to North Jasmine Avenue, then next to Melon Street to the finish at Keystone Road.
While no "trailheads," there is truly ample parking and many amenities over the length with the trail - benches, water fountains, and restrooms. Restaurants, lodging, shops, historic avenues, bike shops and much more are available in the adjoining towns.
Maintenance and amenities are contributed by Pinellas County and Pinellas Trails, Inc., a citizens group. Security is truly provided by the sheriff'ersus office, park rangers, and volunteers. Some subjects in southern St. Petersburg are in bygon industrial neighborhoods, and riders are advised to be cautious. Marker signs every single 500 feet along the trail could be used for calculating range or reporting problems.
Downtown St. Petersburg hosting companies a capital of activities, eating places, shops, museums and art galleries. Parking and bike racks are readily available. Coming from downtown, the trail extends past Tropicana Field and through a great industrial area. Moving north, the Cross Bayou Bridge over Boca Ciego Bay is truly particularly picturesque.
