I’ve skated this trail so many times. Brought my speed teammates out here and they enjoyed it. Seen a bobcat before. Lots of deer. Such a smooth and fun trail
Did the entire trail out and back. The east end has some roots and patchwork. The rest of the trail is an excellent condition. Could use better signage where you cross major highways. Be sure to take the new spur over to highway 100. Beautiful ride.
This trail is just past the West trail down the dirt road. Nice parking area, but we wrote our bikes all the way from the park entrance. 15.5 miles out and back. Rode down to the Fakahatchee Hilton! Sat on the dock and looked at all the gators swimming happily in their pond. Beautiful swamp area! We were in the middle of the drought so the trail was muddy and a few spots, but mainly dry. Met an experience hiker that said the west Trail was really lush and beautiful, but we ran out of time!
Rode from Palatka to where the trail crosses Vermont Rd about 1.5 miles from trail end. In general, the trail was very good to excellent condition, with the usual root protrusions under the tree canopy . My only real complaint is that there was no signage coming out of Palatka, and no mileage signage at all.Lo
Loved this trail. Overall, I would rate the pavement quality as being very good. Yes there are some bumps and lumps, but that is to be expected when you’re riding deep under tree canopy. And yes, there are some hills! But this is central FL! expected for Central Florida.
Trail was in very good to excellent condition. The boardwalks are starting to show some wear. You can ride to the far southern end of Mashes Sand Beach for some beautiful views.
The paved trail was in good to excellent condition. I did an out-and-back from Munson Hills TH (about 30 or 32 miles total). The scenery was pleasant, and the trail not crowded for a Monday afternoon winter ride. I certainly appreciated the ongoing trail maintenance.
It is a busy car corridor, but the path is separate from the roadway and pretty smooth. A multi-year upgrade of the road east of the green area of the map is leading to better trail crossings of the multiple business entrances and streets. I believe the final resurfacing is being done this spring. It is a short trail but a much needed chance to relax a bit from the not-so-biker-friendly areas at either end.
I did 16.4 miles today on my bike. I started at Ochlocknee Bay and rode up to Medart (8.2 miles). I had lunch at Hamaknockers BBQ and rode back to the car. The trail is very good. You end up on the side walk or street as you pass through Panacea and must cross Hwy 98. It is fine as long as you’re careful. I would be a little nervous with smaller kids, but I really enjoyed the ride and the BBQ was excellent.
Started our ride at the north end trailhead and rode south to the causeway. Nice surface, straight, mostly flat trail. Great views of the canals and waterways. 16 miles, great ride.
Yes it’s beside the highway, but it’s safe and still picturesque. We parked in Rosemary Beach at a free 3 hour parking spot. It was a Tuesday 1pm in November and there were plenty of parking. We went west and stayed on the left side as it was shadier all the way to Deer Lake State Park where we entered to check out the beach access there and used the restrooms. Hardly any other walkers or bikers. Such a fun safe leisurely drive. Got to see all the new architecture going up that has Greek vibes. Stopped at Pizza by the Sea for lunch and had great pizza and margs.
