Coastal Anclote Trail

The Coastal Anclote Trail is a 4.5-mile multi-use path in southeast Pasco County, Florida. The paved trail includes one longer route and three spurs that connect trail users to local parks.

About the Route

The trail provides safe bike-ped connections between the Pinellas Trail (although a small gap exists between the two trails) and three Pasco County parks, Key Vista Park, Anclote Gulf Park, and Anclote River Park. Key Vista Nature Park, which lies at the north end of the trail, provides views of Anclote Key and the Gulf of Mexico; a little further south, Anclote Gulf Park has a popular fishing pier and a dog park, as well as a boardwalk that leads to Key Vista Nature Park; and Anclote River Park, with a swimming beach and boat launch on the Gulf.

In addition to the three parks, the trail also allows neighbors to ride or walk safely to the local high, middle, and elementary schools. The trail has both flat sections and inclines, and as an extra blessing in the coastal heat, is almost entirely shrouded in tree cover.
