Florida Coast To Coast (C2C) Route Description
Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- This trail was completed in March 2022. The first day was partial rain and great temps. The second day was plagued by rain ending in a monsoon where I needed a family member to get me in Sarasota. The trails are really great. I highly recommend giving this a partial tour or a complete tour. This video is a route recap, and I will make a highlight reel eventually.
From East to West the trail starts in Titusville and ends at Demens Landing Park in downtown St. Pete next to the St. Pete Pier. Rather than Clearwater.

Two things. The trail in Titusville actually starts on the opposite side of the Indian River. After starting and you cross over the big bridge, it crosses over to the left side of the road and passes thru Downtown Titusville. It is well marked. On the other side of US 1, you catch the trail bridge that will take you over Garden st. You never have to endanger yourself on US 1 or any busy street.
Two, in Osteen, don’t get off the trail. Take it all the way down to Gemini Springs. Just past the entrance hang a left and follow it down to the I-4 exit ramp. Cross there and follow it up to the Pedestrian bridge over I-4 where you eventually ended up. It is 100% trail all the way and you will have food and Water options. No road riding. 17-92 in Sanford ( the area you did not like much) is not a great riding area. I can share the route if ya need it but it would be a much safer route.
Feel free if you can to put the route here. that way if anyone reads this they can see alternatives.
Thanks for all the great info! The west end of the FL C2C actually ends at Demens Landing Park in downtown St. Pete next to the St. Pete Pier. Rather than Clearwater.
Thanks that was not clear when I was doing my research. I will add that in the description.
Thank you for all of the detail. I rode this west to east in late April, finishing with a ride up the coast to Jacksonville. Most of it was really beautiful, and I managed to avoid riding in the rain. The down side was that the heat and humidity were starting to be a factor. I’m from the Kansas City area.
Thank you so much! Me and a friend are riding it in December. I’ll be 67 (from Tennessee) and she’s 62, from California, and is meeting me in Daytona. We’ll drive our bikes to the trailhead in Titusville and take off from there. She said she dies t do hills well but I know she rides alit abs is in good shape. Aerobic strength at our age is not what it was but we’re determined. I rode about 70 miles my first day on my solo ride on the Virginia Capital Trail (VCT). I believe I was in heaven those 2 days (Williamsburg to Richmond and return). Your info/video is so helpful. I am making all of the arrangements so I really appreciate this. Bike on! 👍🏼👍🏼
Best In Class!! Outstanding post trip summary with lessons learned. Thank You!
Thank you very much Sir this was exactly the type of video I was looking for, as it relates to the Coast to Coast trail!!!
Thank you for your video very informative and helpful. I plan to ride C2C soon. I live in Clearwater so I will be coming from the other direction. Much appreciated.
Excellent video, route and details!!! Thanks!
Thanks for the details. I'm planning on doing this route in December 2023
Looks like you got a little confused at East Lake/Keystone. From east to west, you end up on the SE corner of that intersection. You need to cross to the NW corner and continue westbound to stay on the Pinellas Trail. Stay on this trail for about 3.5 miles and turn right at Melon Street....its easy to miss this turn on the trail. From there, its pretty hard to lose the trail all the way to the end of the trail at Demmings Landing.
Great video and details. I added your route to my ride with gps. I plan to do your route September 10.
Thanks for an informative video, nice overview of the trail. I rode C2C a couple of months ago, it was fun. I've videos too if you wanna see my experience on C2C. Thanks👍
I haven't rode this trail yet, but according to some of the other videos I've watched, taking a right after the bridge past Osteen is better. Most take that road (415/Celery Avenue) west and then cut north to downtown to the riverfront area where there are a lot of bars and restaurants. There's a trail along the lake that goes under I4 where you can turn south and eventually catch the Seminole Wekiva trail via 17, 46, and International Avenue. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I plan to ride the C2C beginning in February. Can you send me a link to your ridewithgps route? The link in your comments gave me an error. Thank you!
Ditto, please. Thanks.
Same
Thanks for the video! How can I get a copy of your map?
Look at the description. All the information is right there.
