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.
Been walking the trail for seven years and trail is becoming more and more popular for homeless camps in the woods. Witnessed a man beating a girl. Had a man pushing a shopping cart screaming at me telling me I am walking the wrong direction. More and more trash along the trail and food on benches . All good things come to an end.
I have seen so many close calls with small children and groups renting bikes and organizing standing on the trail when speeders come down the hill and fly past them. Killarney rentals should come out the side door and not directly onto the trail or slow the traffic down.
Living in Apopka, I've been on portions of the West Orange Trail MANY times. Your description starts at the southern point at the bottom of Lake Apopka and ends with the words describing the trail ending at its southern point along Lester Rd. You should change the word "southern" to "northern". Otherwise, a nice description of a very nice trail. Thank you.
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.
Terrific trail along Lake Monroe. Fresh and smooth surface (mostly) and a relaxing ride. Only 4.5 miles long however, but does connect to Cross Seminole trail, albiet at the end with lots of traffic.
