Appreciate that the trailhead has water to wash the horse and a bathroom for riders. Trails are nice but much of the trail is very near I75, Im just not used to hearing traffic. Worth the trip & Ill be back!

Very nice little hike - only a few miles out and back. Soft surface. Almost all shaded. Bench at Land Bridge to rest before starting back. Alternate route for return hike if you want little more distance.

Plenty of parking with restrooms. Bike wash also available. Guided horse tours also available.Great trail head for riding west to cross the Land Bridge to reach Canal Diggings and Nyals loop @ 20 miles total. Adding Ern and Burn with Troll trails for about 26 miles total. This allows skipping yellow trails like Spider Kingdom and get mostly to blue trails. Mountain bike trails and great paved trails are available.

Great place to trail ride. Bathrooms, water and wash racks for the horses.Only concern is the cyclists on the paved trail. Many dont slow down or stop.If you horse is good with bikes.... its a good place to ride.

The ORANGE trail was great 1.25 miles to middle of bridge over I-75. It was cool and the trail was clean. There was a tight portal through a tree, not real tight its very pretty.

Great place to head back off into the trails. Wether you are biking, riding horses or doing a hike. There is a horse back riding place right on site that will take your on trail rides. Not sure how much that costs. It looked pretty cool especially around sunset.Huge place to park horse trailers and get your animal ready.

Great trail for almost everything! The paved part of the trail is very well maintained. My family and I ride everything there (bikes, scooters, even inline skates). The hiking trails are awesome also. All paths (horse, hiking, bike) are clear and marked.

This was my first time here on bike and I tried the easy dirt path and the paved path it was very enjoyable if you like nature. People around are very friendly and the horses are beautiful. Great scenery for a bike hike or horse ride.

So cool to be on the Florida Trail, so close to cities, and still have some wilderness. Note that there are more than one path, one paved and one through the woods. Sadly no wildlife, though.

It has a lot of trials for bikes and horses, not just foot traffic.

There is ample parking, clean bathrooms with running water and quite a few picnic tables for lunch. Both the off road trails and the paved trail meet on either side of the trail head providing choices for all skill levels.

These are some excellent bike trails. U have ridden them many times, as its part of the same system as Santos, the Greenway. Its not far of 75 so I stopped to walk the dog while traveling. Well worth a put stop. Its not but a 5 minute drive from the highway.

The trail for the most part is great, but unfortunately the land bridge has been paved over. It is only a bridge now

Ki
Review №40

Great trail. Has both paved and off road options. The bridge over I75 is pretty cool and a great place to take a break and take pics. Beware however, this trail lacks drinking stations so make sure you bring plenty of water especially in the summer months.

Park at the Land Bridge Trail head a short distance off I-75 second exit north of the Turnpike. Bathrooms and parking and picnic tables are available as well as separate horse riding facilities. The newly paved asphalt trail extends 10 miles west over the Land Bridge over I-75. No facilities on this route And the trail abruptly just ends. Very rolling and some tough hills to climb. But beautiful pine forest and Florida Scrub. The trail extends east about 8 miles to the Santos Trailhead which has bathrooms and parking. This section is less hilly but still rolling. More sand scrub and long leaf pines.The paved trail is crisscrossed and entwined with dirt/sand bike trails, and there may be more dirt bikers than road/trail ️? Some horses also on the dirt trails.Ride it, you will love it ️.

A hidden gem! The park is well maintained and has some beautiful scenery that really showcases Floridas beautiful and unique environment. Im glad to see such effort put forth to preserve this states history and heritage. This is a fantastic place for cycling, walking, running, or horse-back riding. Wide open spaces and lots of variety of trails.

Another Mario County gem! Paved trail from Land bridge trail head to SR 200. Cross SR 200 to continue riding on lime rock path or winding paths through the woods. Mostly shaded and a great ride!

This is a delightful trail - even on a hot day it is cool under the enchanted oaksthanks to the banana spiders high up in the canopy there are no mosquitos either.Only the last .25 miles to the land bridge itself are not under shade.
