The Benicia-Martinez Bridge Trail offers a unique ride across the Carquinez Strait with dedicated bike and pedestrian lanes on the west side of the bridge. It’s a smooth, paved path with great views of the water and passing ships. A solid link between Benicia and Martinez, especially if you’re piecing together a longer Bay Area loop. It connects with the bike trail on the Martinez (Southwest) side of the bridge, and the dedicated bike trails in Benicia on the north side of the strait.
