Fall on the Cape Cod Rail Trail
There are plenty of great walking and biking trails on the Cape, but one of our favorites is the Cape Cod Rail Trail. The trail traverses 25 scenic miles along the Cape and passes through six charming towns. Our complimentary bikes make it easy to get out for a quick and scenic adventure.Â
The Cape Cod Rail Trail is a rail-to-trail conversion of the former Cape Cod Central Railroad, which originally served to connect various towns on the Cape. After the decline of rail service in the mid-1900s, the tracks were abandoned and later redeveloped in the 1970s into the modern-day Cape Cod Rail Trail.Â
The Cape Cod Rail Trail stretches for 25 miles, beginning in Yarmouth and extending all the way to Wellfleet. Along the way, you’ll pass through charming towns like Dennis, Harwich, Brewster, and Orleans. Each town offers its own unique attractions and amenities, from quaint cafes and ice cream shops to beautiful ponds and nature reserves. The trail is mostly flat, making it accessible for riders of all ages and skill levels, and is well-maintained with numerous access points and rest areas.
As you ride along the Cape Cod Rail Trail, there are many things to see and do. You can stop for a swim at one of the many freshwater ponds, take a detour to visit the Cape Cod National Seashore or enjoy a picnic at one of the scenic overlooks. Whether you’re looking for a leisurely ride or a full-day adventure, the Cape Cod Rail Trail offers a fantastic way to explore Cape Cod’s natural beauty and vibrant communities.
