Cape Cod Rail Trail

The Cape Cod Rail Trail is a 25-mile multi-use pathway in Massachusetts, repurposing a railroad corridor into an extensive recreation and transportation corridor. The trail provides direct access to the picturesque scenery of several Cape Cod towns, offering access to beaches, state parks, and local businesses. Thus, designed primarily for summertime biking and tourism, usage of the trail peaks during the summer months. The trail attracts families, cyclists, and nature enthusiasts, making it a key asset for the tourism-driven economy of Cape Cod.
