The Greenbelt Walkway is a 5.6 mile off-road open for walking, running and cycling. It is a very popular trail in South Portland.

The path is not very difficult and because it is off-road, it is a great option for a family bike ride.

The park at the eastern end provides expansive views of the Portland Harbour.

Portland Head Light at Fort Williams Park

Highlight • Monument

The Portland Head Light is located on a rocky promontory in Cape Elizabeth, Maine, and has marked the entrance to Portland Harbor since 1791. It is the oldest lighthouse in the state. The 24-meter-tall, white tower structure was built at the direction of George Washington. Today, the U.S. Coast Guard operates the light, while the former keeper's house houses a museum. The building is owned by the municipality and is located in picturesque Fort Williams Park, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean.

Red's Dairy Freeze

Highlight • Cafe

Red's Dairy Freeze is a great stop during a ride on a hot day. You have your choice of soft serve or frozen yogurt, and you can enjoy it in front of the benches in front of the 70-year-old shop.
