Trail is scenic and very well maintained. Downtown Winter Springs a good place to stop for a snack or drink. Many parking options and clean restrooms. Look forward to riding this trail again.
Easy ride. Trail is clean-has a few leaves & sticks. Easy to park & go to the trail.
Park at Blanchard park. The trail is asphalt and well maintained. Very scenic. Worth the ride.
Did 11 miles great experience love this park.
Going east on the trail at Rouse Rd there is no marking as to where to continue. I thought i was at the end. I'll have to go back another time to complete it.
Experienced a bit of difficulty finding parking but eventually solved that problem. The trail is nice and the section my wife and I rode was scenic. In all honesty this trail is too urban for my tastes but I can see how it would appeal to locals for walking, running and recreational riding.
Well paved with more wildlife than you would expect - hawks, herons and Ibis. Relatively suburban, so not much to see other than backyards, fences and retention ponds
This trail is similar to Cross Seminole not quite as disjointed but with similar features such as numerous road intersections with slow crossing lights. I missed taking the left at Markham/Thomas Rd area to go towards a river and wound up riding on the road shoulder up to 46, how about adequate signs or painting on some arrows? Why spend all the money on trails but then forget signage?
Maybe this is what's expected in suburban trails. Some sections were pretty scenic with local flora. There were a lot of benches along the way and a biff or 2. If you're looking for a long stretch of relaxing riding this isn't it. Doubt if I'd ride it again.
This "trail" is so disjointed with all the busy road crossings and sidewalks. Signage is poor, they need to invest in some spray paint for arrows. I came to an ubiquitous end by some heavy industry with NO signs as to how to connect to another part of the trail. They were tearing out some railroad tracks and there was a short piece of asphalt which presumably is part of a trail? Much of it goes through suburban neighborhoods on sidewalks with many intersections. When you press the crossing button you need to wait at least 5 minutes or just cross when all is clear.
On the bright side, there were some nice areas like near the "Big Tree" park. Going up Rhinehart was nothing but busy noisy traffic and intersections. The crossing over I-4 had no marking or signs, so I skipped that & went as far north as it goes.
Unless you're a glutton for punishment & frustration, this trail is NOT recommended.
This a beautiful trail, it is very peaceful and the wildlife is breath taking
We began at Black Hammock Trailhead and walked for about a mile before turning around. While I have heard that this trail does cross a lot of roads, the part that we walked was very nice and we will be going back again soon
