Flatwoods Park Trail

Another really good paved trail

September, 2024 by stevecycles200

The only reason this isn't five stars, is some areas are bumpy. It is close to needing a resurfacing. Excellent shelters that are well spaced with water, real bathrooms, two parking lots, and entrances from opposite ends.

Old Fort King Trail

Only 2 miles is paved.

Courtney Campbell Trail

Great views, mostly flat, minimal shade

September, 2024 by ebonysharie

A good trail for me as a beginner. There are benches scattered throughout to take breaks, but not much shade

West Orange Trail

Courtesy

September, 2024 by lahlonvance

I’ve ridden this trail several times. The trail itself is awesome. Not too many busy crossings lots of shade. I really like riding this trail. The one thing that takes away from the experiences too many bike riders who are very rude riding for too fast for this trail, walkers, people, walking, dogs, pushing strollers, etc., also passing in spots where they shouldn’t be running stop signs it’s getting to be where it’s almost dangerous

West Orange Trail

The trail is great but...

August, 2024 by webmail1

It's getting so dangerous with all of the electric mopeds I'm afraid to ride or walk on it.

Flatwoods Park Trail

I ran this today. It is a great trail. It's impossible to get lost. There is mile markers every half mile. This is important because you loose the internet. The park ranger was very helpful, and friendly. I have to say this is a favorite now.¿

Suncoast Trail

such an amazing trail with full of nice people

August, 2024 by abubeji5

I recommend every cyclist and runner … to check out this trail. It’s just amazing.

General James A. Van Fleet State Trail

great trail

August, 2024 by loryad123

This is a great trail, beautiful shade. We saw deer, otter, a rat snake, and a pigmy rattlesnake. We love nature and if you don’t bother it, it won’t bother you. Lots of places to sit, as well as overview spots. Flat for most of the trail that we did. I recommend it highly

Flatwoods Park Trail

best skate trail

July, 2024 by brookeypav

Probably the best trail for in-line or quad skating in the state. Easy to get speed and fun to loop around. Also I have seen lots of wildlife on the trail from deer to hogs. Always a pleasure coming out here.

Starkey Wilderness Park Paved Trail

Newly Paved & Clean

July, 2024 by s9yxgd6ktv

First time visiting this trail. There are bike trails for road and MTBs, hiking trails, etc., This 6.5 mile trail is newly paved (asphalt) and still being worked on some parts. Clean trail and facilities located in parking lot 8 and end of the trailhead at junction of Starkey and Suncoast. Mile markers and small sheds along the way. Not much shade as pine needles surround the trail. Although mostly flat it’s quiet and serene. Ample parking with rangers present.

Courtney Campbell Trail

Courtney CampBell trail

June, 2024 by tiffanyblack5

This was our first time and we came on Fathers Day Sunday and arrived around 12pm and parked at Ben T Walton beach I think it was called and it was perfect spot to unload our e-bikes and ride. Parking was $7 for 4 hrs but we were done in 2 but it was really nice and the breeze off the water kept us cool! We were gonna hit the beach after but we needed to get home but u def could have done both! Also we loved it because there was hardly anyone on it :)
