Parked near Harbor Master building. Beautiful international sailing yachts tied up to the docks flying a number of different foreign flags. Exciting to realize they sailed across oceans to come to Belfast Harbor. Wondered if they were there to have work done on them in the repair shops at 21 Front. Then we walked across the river. Beautiful crisp fall day.
10. Passy Rail Trail

Reviewed By C9351AIpeterd - Daniel Island, United States
This is a nice bike trail that can be picked up at the end of the Harbor Walk. The surface is crushed stone but is so well packed that I had no problem riding my road bike on the trail. At the end of the trail you can make a right onto City Point Rd and keeping the Passagassawakeag River on your right you can loop back to the pedestrian bridge and the Harbor Walk in downtown Belfast.
