Fantastic walk and views along the north shore parts of this trail, particularly around Bailey's Bay. Also did a 12km walk on the trail from Somerset to Warwick - would not recommend that section.Full review by Michael B

Hi, Thanks for your review of the Bermuda Trail. Can you recommend a section that doesn't have the barriers or otherwise difficult to navigate parts? I thank you in advance, Birgit
A:
Its all easy to ride and the barriers are there to stop the scooters and are not a problem at all. I think they have been over exagerated by people. Its all easy.

Yes, the entire route is connected, but there are some places where it is a little tricky. The maps that we found, and used, were of the whole island which made them less detailed than ideal. I used my phone (google maps) to fill in the blanks. The railway trail is shown on google maps, so even in those few hundred feet here-and-there where neither map was distinct I could see where the trail picked up and just aimed for it.
Hi, we are thinking of doing this excursion. Can you tell me if you are driven back to the ship or do you cycle back? Thanx
A:
You will have to contact the vendor that you intend to rent the bicycle from. I walked it on my own. The trail runs almost the entire length of the island. Sections go along vehicular roads.
