We road from Maytown to Osteen grabbed some breakfast and headed back. (32 miles round trip) The trail is in perfect condition. No standing water. The weather could not have been any better. It was actually a little cool in the morning with the shade but warmed up on the way back with a perfect mix of sun and shade. We saw some large turkeys and a good size alligator on the side of the trail sunning.
Great ride. Beautiful scenery. Felt safe on trail. Not too busy
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.
We love this trail and take the day to stop at all the different places to enjoy the trail even more!
I rode it down and back from Sorrento - part way into the Wekiva Trail. The trail is really nice in the middle - oaks, and parks, very pretty.
The southern end could be skipped as it has a lot of busy street crossing. A good place to start would be the Rooms To Go parking lot at mm 2.75.
There are2 tunnels under roads that are nice.
Street crossings could be marked better, need to pay attention when crossing - look for a No Vehicles sign and double yellow lines on the path at intersections (some are very faded). The path may jump sides or turn off, need to be attentive.
Pleasantly surprised with this trail! Saw a lot of different types of birds and boats along the river. The pavement was very smooth and there were quite a few benches a long the way. It was a straight shot and rarely encountered traffic. Highly recommend!
This is a review of the 3 mile segment of this trail between Highbanks Road and US17/92. I walk this segment back and forth 3 times a week - 6 miles total a day. I really like it because it's close to my home and is probably the least busy of the trails in the area. It has become very frustrating lately however, because maintenance (which I've been informed is the responsibility of the City of DeBary and not Volusia County) is virtually non-existent. The grass is seldom mowed and when it is, any trash encountered is just chopped and left. The section that runs parallel to US17/92 reminds one more of the county dump than a recreational trail. Most distressing however is the fact it has become a convenient shortcut for motorized vehicles. Point this out to the offenders zipping along and you open yourself up to all kinds of verbal abuse, and today to something that bordered on a personal threat. There never has been signage reminding users of basic trail etiquette and courtesies, and most of the "NO Motorized Vehicles" signs have been knocked down. Too bad because over the three miles there are twists and turns and elevation changes along with unique viewing opportunities - wildlife, trains, wetlands.
This wasn't really a trail. Just a side walk in a neighborhood. You do pass a church, golf course, playground, elementary school, tennis court, and little league sport complex. It was okay. Just felt like walking in my neighborhood. Sidewalk minimally maintained, but wide, bathroom at the sports complex but has hours.
Our take on this trail, is we loved it! We started at the south end, stopped at the historic house and pier. The trail is a dirt road that travels along the Indian River. You really feel like you are back in the woods or in the country. The river is along one side and the back yards of these lovely homes are on the other side. There are beautiful golf courses along there as well. We have E-bikes, so we enjoyed the straight stretches to “open them up.” We rode north to the preserve and headed back.
We loved this little trail! Hit it in the morning while staying over on Vero Beach. Short but sweet!
