The Gordon River Greenway – Baker Park loop offers a delightful touring cycling experience through a 126-acre natural area in Naples. You'll glide along smooth asphalt and well-maintained wooden boardwalks, passing through lush greenery, pine flatwoods, and urban mangrove forests. Keep an eye out for local wildlife like birds, tortoises, and alligators, especially on the elevated sections over wetlands and from the scenic bump-outs on bridge crossings over the Gordon River.
Planning your visit is straightforward, as the trail boasts excellent amenities including multiple access points with parking, bike racks, restrooms, and drinking fountains. The route is well-lit for evening rides and features covered benches for breaks. This easy 7.5-mile (12.0 km) loop, with only 44 feet (13 metres) of elevation gain, is perfect for a leisurely 44-minute ride, making it highly suitable for families and cyclists of all skill levels.
Beyond the scenic ride, the greenway connects to other points of interest like the Naples Zoo and kayak/canoe launch points, expanding your recreational options. Baker Park itself enhances the family-friendly atmosphere with picnic areas, playgrounds, and a splash pad. This well-maintained and accessible route provides a fantastic way to experience Naples' natural beauty.
