I was amazed at the natural beauty of this trail. Very scenic from Edgewater going South. Restrooms in Edgewater were spotless. I liked it and would go again!
The trail is well maintained. There are a lot of road crossings and this in general is poor for road biking with only a few sections that are decent in length without interruption. For those using tri bikes there is essentially nowhere I felt comfortable in the aerobars. This is better suited for more leisurely activities.
I began near the middle at Soldier's Creek Park. I erred in heading northwest with the goal of connecting to the Sanford Riverwalk. Although I made the connection (and loved the riverwalk next to Lake Monroe, I had to ride primarily on sidewalk/trail adjacent to busy roads and commercial districts. The green cross walks and occasional sign aided in following the trail, but I still ended up missing a couple of turns and needed to double back. I am surprised I didnt collide with any cars crossing into offices and stores along the way.
When I made it back to the park (mm 15.5 or so), I continued southwest and found it to be a terrific ride. Few cross streets, open riding and much more interesting scenery. Primarily residential, there were a number of parks, woods, creeks etc along the way. Unfortunately I was running low on sunlight and wasn't able to get to the end in that direction.
I heartily endorse riding this end of the trail. Save the northern end for Sundays or low car volume days.
Paved path runs parallel to the road the whole time. Park in lot at Walgreen’s because there’s no lot at trail head. It was ok.
As of 11/24, there was a roughly a1000 foot section of the trail adjacent to the lake that is still closed due to past hurricane flooding. You will have to go on the road to get around it. No longer flooded, just covered with debris which will hopefully be cleaned up soon.
We were surprised to find no designated parking at either trailhead ends. We did discover a nice area at the Polk State College trailhead in Lakeland with picnic table. The trail was nicely paved except for a couple spots. Not very scenic but a decent ride.
Not the trail you want to do for you first ride. It was amazing. Did about 21 miles of it. Now other trails are going to be hard to match this one. Saw a lot of wildlife, friendly ebike riders and it was beautiful. Lots of curves, tree covers trails and places to stop. I highly recommend riding this trail
Nice trail to start the coast 2 coast across the state.
Trail closed, drove to get here and found out with signs up at all the crossings in our area.

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
It would be nice if some of you realized that E trikes are mostly used by persons that have limitations, there are so few ways that my husband can enjoy the outdoors, this is one way. Not all E bike/ E trike riders are inconsiderate. Thank you
