It’s right next to a major highway…what else do I have to tell you?
Not really sure why the lack is signage on this trail has not yet been improved. Has the county not read the reviews mentioning signage issues? It’s not like it hasn’t been a issue very long. The trail is nice. I rode from the Minneola Trailhead to the Winter Garden Station today. There were no maps of the trail that I could find at Minneola. When heading to West Orange you come to what is sort of a fork in the trail at Hancock Road. There is signage at the intersection but no arrows or plain direction to West Orange. I first took a right on Hancock and followed that trail which clearly wasn’t correct because it takes you to the very busy area in of Highway 50. I back tracked to the fork in the road then went left. Correct way. Still poor signage. Please Orange County fix this issue.
Mostly shaded. Fun ride early in the day otherwise too many people. Small inclines. Park at land bridge and you can go horseback riding too.
What a great trail! Didn’t expect the inclines but was a lot of fun riding down!
What a wonderful job was done to make this a very enjoyable ride. The nicest trail I have ridden so far. A must if you are in the area.
Really enjoyed this trail , we did it in 3 separate rides . So nice !! There are mile markers along the way . Very peaceful and runs beside highway 100 for a big part . Crosses roads in a few places but very safe . Highly recommend.
This is a great ride. Its a little crowded on the Gainesville side, but beyond that very peaceful. The surface does need a little maintenance. The wood bridges probably need some new wood and there are several root spots.
Although I Love this trail , there are areas where it needs some work , heaved pavement from tree roots . Would love to see Mile markers along the way as well . Definitely recommend it .
The surface is great, vegetation is nice, but you’re riding within 75-100 feet of a highway with constant car and truck traffic. Anything but quiet and serene as the description implies.
We drove from Vero Beach to the Green Springs Park to ride the Spring to Spring Trail. We headed west on the trail from Green Springs to Gemini Springs. At first I was a little disappointed. The trail ran along side a busy, noisy street. After a few miles we stopped at Gemini Springs and went for a walk around the park and used the restroom. The park was quite nice and it gave us time to regroup. For a moment we contemplated going back East to Green Springs and head on to Maytown but decided to keep going... and so glad we did! We followed the trail to Lake Monroe Park and on over the bridge to Sanford. What a lovely ride along the lake. Our ride roundtrip was roughly 24 miles. We decided to drive back to Sanford for dinner and ended up at the St. John's River Steak and Seafood restaurant with a view of the water. We had a great meal and a glass of wine. We decided to spend the night since the next morning we were going to hike the Orlando Wetlands park. Next time we will come back and ride east on the trail from Green Springs. It is worth the trip for sure!
We road from Armstrong west about 10 miles for a 20 mile ride. Asphalt trail was well kept and all road crossings marked and safe. Potato and cabbage farms were huge and beautiful. Nice, flat ride if you want to relax.
