I didn't care for this trail. Its all on uneven sidewalks in front of houses and you never know when someone pulls out and stops in the bike lane.Then you have to ride on route 98 which is also on sidewalks with busy *** traffic.
After years of traveling to Central Florida to visit theme parks, this December I convinced my family to spend a day on bikes as a break. We rented four bikes from Bikes and Blades at the Killarney Station and rode almost halfway (10 miles) down the trail towards Apopka. The width of the trail was superb for family bike riding, with a smooth asphalt surface throughout. Signage was clear and easy to follow. Downtown Winter Garden is a true gem. We stopped on the way back, parked our bikes and explored the many restaurant and shops. I plan to come back and ride the full length of the trail, including the connections to Lake County to the west.
I recommend parking at the tennis courts by the entrance off Rouse Rd — there’s always plenty of parking. From there, start walking west. It’s a really enjoyable trail with enough foot traffic to never feel isolated. I usually walk to the Econlockhatchee bridge before turning back, which comes out to roughly 4 miles or about 7,000 steps. The park staff are fantastic and do an excellent job keeping the trail clean and well-maintained.
Not the longest trail (about 6.5 miles) but a really enjoyable one. Starts in Starkey Wilderness Park, which is worth a visit on it's own. The trail runs from the park and eventually through some scrub. Watch for deer, fox squirrels and even alligators. At the end of the trail is a nice surprise...a new bathroom and water station (built in 2023). The trail ends at this station as it intersects with the Suncoast Trail. You'll be out in the sun for much of the ride, but the surface is smooth and the further you get from the park, the fewer people you will see.
This trail is destroyed and needs to be repaved. Impossible to skate safely
Me and my family drove an hour to get there for the bike trail. We parked by the dock parking which was beautiful to see. Lots of scenic views. When we start to ride the trail it took us out on the main road, about 2mins in the ride we end up on a road closer that we could not go around. That was the end of our ride.
We ride from the bike trailhead inside the park to the Suncoast trail. It’s right around 6.5 miles each way. Nice and smooth trail with many people using the trail with different modalities. Spotty shade before noon, would be pretty much full sun midday.
This time I went for a bike ride & got really pissed! There was dog crap, horse crap all over the trail- unsanitary!! Why are horses allowed on a paved pedestrian trail?? I used to take my kids there but not anymore. Also today there was a real jerk in a white Auburndale City truck who did not yield to me (on a bike) & kept driving after the parking lot where he could have pulled off. Also 2 John Deer tractors were on the trail & they acted like it was their trail! This was supposed to add to the beauty & relaxation of our city, but it does nothing but cause resentment & disgust at the jerks who have no sense!! There needs to be rules posted & enforced.
Gorgeous trail. A lot of wild life. Boars, gators, deer, birds, cows. You’d see it all. Most of the trail is very well maintained. A small part at the beginning of trail is a bit bumpy. Definitely worth the ride.
A great trail. Shady-stores-places to eat. Busy but I found the walkers very friendly. A must ride
This is a great trail. Paths are smooth. There are a lot of people on trail-I found them very respectful. We came across Ginger Ale springs, very cool. Worth a visit. Restaurants along the way. A must ride.
