The duration of your ride largely depends on your planned activities. If you're focusing solely on riding, the scenic 9-mile northern portion of the trail typically takes about 1.5 hours to complete. However, if you plan to make stops along the way, perhaps to swim at the various beaches, or if you wish to tackle the 9-mile southern portion of the trail as well, we recommend opting for the 4-hour ride. This longer duration allows you ample time to fully enjoy all the sights and experiences the trail has to offer without feeling rushed.

You have the flexibility to make reservations up to 1.5 hours before your desired departure time. If you're looking to ride without a reservation, walk-ins are welcome on a first-come, first-served basis until 3:00 PM. However, we strongly recommend making a reservation if you already have a specific date and time in mind for your ride. This ensures your spot and helps in planning your experience smoothly. You can easily make reservations using our online booking here. Please note that all confirmed reservations require a credit card. This helps us secure your booking and provides a seamless rental experience.
