The Cape Cod Rail Trail is the most popular and best-known bike trail on Cape Cod, it's a 25 Mile Bike Trail(50 Miles round trip). Bike the old rail road tracks through the woods, you'll pass by Marconi Beach, Marconi Station, ponds, marsh, the village of Orleans, Nickerson St. Park, cranberry bogs, places to have lunch and more. The Cape Cod Rail Trail easily connects w/the trail below (when you're in Eastham on the trail, just look for the brown sign that says National Seashore Center), Nickerson St. Park Trail and the Chatham Cape Cod Rail Trail extension. You can turn around at any point on The Cape Cod Rail Trail. The Cape Cod Rail Trail is many times refered to as the "bike path" and is an easy way to get a round on the Lower Cape. Biking The Cape Cod Rail Trail is a wonderful way to spend a day on Cape Cod!

The Nauset National Seashore Trail is one of the most beautiful and picturesque bike rides in New England. A gentle path(3.2 miles round trip)takes you through the beautiful Cape Cod National Seashore, passing through the woods, Doane Rock(picnic area, too), Nauset Marsh and ends at the  award winning Coast Guard Beach(spend some time at the beach). If you want a short beautiful ride, this is the trail to ride and for a longer ride it easily connects w/The Cape Cod Rail Trail(above).This is a fabulous way to bike and enjoy the Cape Cod National Seashore! Please note: April 24 thru May 24th, 2013 there will be a detour at the end of this trail.......you still end-up at the Beautiful Coast Guard Beach!
