Cape Cod Rail Trail

Hiking Trail

Moderate

A beautiful paved path running through the Cape Cod countryside.

The Cape Cod Rail Trail (CCRT) is a paved pathway that runs 25 miles one-way from South Dennis to Wellfleet, according to [CapeCodBike ]( The trail is renowned for its scenery and beauty as it tours the small communities and countryside found on Cape Cod.

The entire route is mostly flat, aside from a few mellow grades in places. Most people will have no problem riding, running, or walking this trail.

The route shown here is a point-to-point ride, run, or hike along the CCRT. However, you can easily make this route shorter by using a set of different trailheads or access points or by completing an out-and-back and turning around sooner. For a full-blooded road ride, consider turning this into a 50-mile out-and-back ride. If you're looking for bonus miles, some maps also show an additional few miles of trail running further west from the South Dennis trailhead.
