Rode the WST for first time today. Started at the Owensboro trail head and rode 23 miles up to Floral City. So peaceful & quiet especially compared to Suncoast that we did earlier in the week. Was a very nice ride even though we did run into a couple of scary situations. Right where the good neighbor trail intersects with the WST there was a rattle snake on the pavement. Very thankful to the rider that came off the GNT and stopped and pointed it out to us. Without his heads up I likely would have ran over it. The 2nd scary event was coming back to the trailhead we had started at. Somewhere between mile 1 & 2 there were 2 large black dogs that came out of the woods and started going after my wife. Fortunately, I heard her screaming and looked back. 2 dogs chasing her and 1 of them was at her ankles. She got away by having to hit the throttle on the e-bike. Be aware.
This trail was our first of hopefully many rides in Florida. We used the trail head in Brooksville. Plenty of fee parking but reasonable at $5 (you’ll need the park mobile app). We went south for about 17 miles. Would agree with others that it is very noisy and also not very scenic. But it is paved which was nice. Bike traffic was very minimal. One set of restrooms 6 miles from where we started (at the athletic fields). Crossing traffic in some places was a bit daunting but in the very busy areas there were crosswalk traffic lights. We did see an armadillo on our ride back to the trail head we used. That was cool. All in all a great first Florida outing.
The paved trail is wide and accommodates its users. My running app indicated the distance is a bit less than 4.5 miles (closer to 4.1) but it was a nice way to spend the morning.
There don't seem to be many outdoor spaces left in crowded central Florida that offer a quiet, removed experience. This trail has it in abundance, however. Running straight as an arrow through grazing lands, forest, and wetlands, it's almost a Zen-like experience as you cruise silently along the miles. Most activity is near to the trail starting points, so after a few miles away from those, you're left to yourself. One of the best, for sure.
We rode this for the first time today. It was cooler outside so not too many people. It was beautiful!! Highly recommend if you’d like an easy ride.
I grew up driving over this bridge with my parents. It was great fun to ride my bicycle over it as an adult. We parked at Cooper’s Bayou just east of the bridge entryway—a good place to park and ride the entire trail. Whiskey Joe’s was a fun place to eat/drink. Be prepared for crowds there on good weather days. I will ride this trail again next year.
My brother in law and I rode this trail 2/23/26. We were in the area so hopped on the trail doing the loop from Bruce B Downs. Cold day but really enjoyed it. On our way back to Venice we stopped in Ybor and had lunch at the Columbia. Fun day.
We rode the trail around Dunedin area to Clearwater and on over to Clearwater Beach. We also rode from Dunedin North to Palm Harbor area. The Dunedin area has lots of places to eat/drink right off the trail. Mileage markers are not easily visible. The 20 MPH limit is ignored by cyclists and other people on various wheeled creations. “On your left” isn’t followed either.
My friend and I rode this trail during our February visit to the area. It does get a little confusing down below the city library, but we were able to navigate over to the circular path leading across the water to Clearwater Beach. A beautiful view and a fun ride.
Rode the path ,rode a gravel trail and grass trail . bogged out in the sand. Nature. Nice clean restrooms , water stations . Perfect day.
At the east end of the trail cross Canal St. and make a right. Trail/sidewalk runs along Canal. Cross rt 44 into Venetian Gardens where there is a beautiful path along Harris Lake.
