The existing trail is a 6.5 mile long asphalt pathway that follows a former railway corridor linking the City of Winter Park recreational and residential areas with Orange County neighborhoods and the Orlando Fashion Square Mall. The Cady Way Trail is an innovative project that brought together four governmental entities to build and maintain the multi-use recreational trail: the City of Orlando, the Orlando Utilities Commission (OUC), the City of Winter Park and Orange County.

The trail alternates between a single width pathway and two paths separated by a median. When it is a single pathway, the trail varies between 10 and 16 feet wide with a white line separating pedestrians from skaters and bicyclists. When it is divided, it is 10 feet wide on one side and 6 feet wide on the other. Bicyclists and skaters will use the 10 foot wide side when the trail is divided and the wider lane of the single width pathways. Look for sign and pavement markings indicating which side you should follow. The narrow “station” or location reference numbers are marked in white on the trail. They are posted every 0.5 mile and can be used to describe the location of any problems on the trail.

There are shelters and rest stops with benches, trash receptacles and water fountains located at convenient intervals along the trail.
