The Esplanade section of the Spirit Trail follows along the south side of Esplanade from St. Georges to St. Andrew's, where the trail crosses Esplanade at a signalized intersection. The trail then continues east along a boulevard area between Esplanade and then onto Low Level Road.
At St. Patrick's, the trail continues along Park Street to St. David's. At St. David's the trail heads north to 2nd Street, then east to Moodyville Park.
The Ravine connection is a pedestrian only trail accessed via St. David's and runs through the Moodyville ravine area. This pedestrian trail consists of stairs, a bridge, and a suspension bridge and is not wheelchair accessible. The Ravine Connection rejoins the Spirit Trail in Moodyville Park.

At the far east end of Moodyville Park, the Spirit Trail crosses over the 3rd Street hill via an overpass connecting to Heywood Street.

These sections were completed in 2014.
