This easy 3.8-mile (6.2 km) loop offers a vibrant urban escape, tracing the Miami waterfront with just 54 feet (16 metres) of elevation gain, taking about 1 hour and 34 minutes. You'll experience a fascinating blend of city and nature, with continuous views of Biscayne Bay and the Miami River. The paved path winds past the iconic Brickell Avenue Drawbridge, offering glimpses of luxury high-rises and lush palm-lined sections. It's a perfect, accessible route for a leisurely stroll or a quick jog, providing a unique perspective on Miami's dynamic cityscape.
Planning your visit is straightforward, as the trail is easily accessible with various parking options available throughout downtown Miami. Public transport is also a convenient way to reach the starting point near First Street. Given Miami's climate, consider hiking during the cooler parts of the day, especially in warmer months, and remember to carry water. The route is part of a larger continuous pathway system, making it simple to connect from different points.
This trail is a segment of Miami's extensive Baywalk and Riverwalk system, which is an excellent way to discover the city on foot. You'll pass by notable features like Maurice A. Ferré Park, home to art sculptures, and the bustling Bayside Marketplace. The Brickell Avenue Drawbridge itself is a historic landmark, featuring bronze monuments that honor Miami's original inhabitants, the Tequesta Indians, adding a layer of cultural depth to your urban adventure.
