This trail offers various types of scenery including ocean, cranberry bogs, and marshlands.. The parking lot is located across the street from the bus terminal on Depot Ave. We set our GPS to 1 Depot Ave. and found it very easily. If you want to ride to Nobska Lighthouse at the Woods Hole end of the trail, turn right (not left, toward the ferries) and go up the hill (Woods Hole Rd.). In about a quarter mile, take a right on Church St. The lighthouse will come into view at the top of the hill. It's private so you can't go in; however, it's a picturesque scene and offers cliff views of the ocean. It adds about a mile to the trip. Once you leave the lighthouse, you don't have to go back the way you came. You can continue around the lighthouse. Within a half mile, you'll ride under the bikeway. Right after you go under it, look to your left. There's a paved ramp that gets you back up to the bikeway. We rode 4 rail trails while on the Cape. All are reasonably flat and make for quick riding. I consider this one my favorite, as its the most picturesque.
