Explored the loop by foot, bicycle & automobile several times and still see things that amaze me. Last year my wife & I saw 5 ponies asleep on the paved part of the loop towards the end. A must-see.

Beautiful loop to drive (in the evenings), bike , or hike . The wildlife and nature of the land is awesome to see at different times of the day. Look out for ponies!

Christina Tyler Wenks

Chincoteague is famous for its wild ponies , but herons, egrets, and other wildlife here are equally stunning. Bring your camera and sense of wonder.

Ellie Pines

Bike it or walk it at least once, especially as close to the sunrise as you can. Breathtaking.

Take the oyster shell trail into the woods for nice Marsh views and fiddler crabs .

Megan Bard Morse

Great short bike ride with kids, just remember to bring plenty of big spray!

Colin Lord

The facility closes at 4pm which seems a little early.

Brian Wehneman

Bug spray (and a lot of it) is a must. The Mosquitos are aggressive!

Brand new asphalt and lots of shade. Great trail for a summer bike ride !

Andrew Reams

Make sure you bring your camera and your bug spray .

Great trail, but avoid it after a rain. The Mosquitos will eat you alive and totally ignore your bug spray - Chrissy Nickel

Mosquitos might be bad, but the view from the top of the lighthouse is well worth it. It's a good place to stop if you're walking or biking to the beach, too. - Ellie Pines
