The Inland Rail Trail is a 21-mile Class I trail located within the communities of Oceanside, Vista, San Marcos, and Escondido, as well as within a portion of the unincorporated County of San Diego.

The eastern-most portion of the bikeway was constructed in the cities of Escondido and San Marcos as part of the SPRINTER construction project.  The trail extended from the Escondido Transit and SPRINTER Rail Station in the City of Escondido to the intersection of West Mission Road and North Pacific Street in the City of San Marcos.

On April 29, 2021, SANDAG received $12 million in grant funds to complete the trail in Vista. The funds will be used to complete the two-mile gap between Civic Center Drive and North Drive. SANDAG anticipates construction to begin in 2022.

The completed project will result in a continuous trail between Escondido and Oceanside.
