This was a great trail. It is nice to place to start right by the bike and bean coffee shop. The only thing about the trail that grossed me out a bit was while looking down I noticed alot of bugs feeding off other bugs and dragging then around etc… My guess is that bugs fly into bikers and end up on the ground to be eaten. This was obvious just past the bike and bean where there was alot of traffic but once you are out futher with less people I never noticed it.

The trail here is amazing, it’s perfectly flat, even and wonderfully scenic. You can go for kilometers only passing a few other cyclists or walkers. We got on the trail at the Bike and Bean, obviously a favorite because the parking lot is full of cars with bike racks. Coming from highway 103 you drive right by the Superstore so you can pick-up a picnic lunch and extra water. The trail is on Google maps so you can find other trail heads and entry points. As you ride from Tantallon toward Boutilliers Point there are wonderful ocean views, the trail follows highway 103. It crosses a number of private driveways through Ingramport but it’s wonderfully groomed with some very appreciated benches to take a break and enjoy the view. Five stars all the way and worth the trips from the city and I’ll try the other end near Bayers Lake soon!

We connect to this trail from the BLT Trail(Beechville Lakeside Timberlea Rails To Trails) and ride our bikes out to Tantallon and beyond. One time we shared a panini sandwich at the Bike & Bean Café on the St. Margaret’s Bay Road which was really nice to do, to take a break from riding. We ate it outside where we could watch our bikes. The trail runs right beside the Bike & Bean. There used to be a big beaver lodge at another place along the trail and one day I actually saw the beaver swimming in the water near the lodge. I enjoy riding along this trail very much. Beautiful scenery, lakes, trees and bridges.
