January 22, 2021East leg of loop is great well blazed some hills and lots of shade. West leg is very sandy horse trail. Some shade. Great leg workout with sand a slog
January 16, 2021Beautiful trail. Even the paved trail is nice.
January 5, 2021It’s a great trail once you find the right one! It’s a bit confusing from the parking lot, however it’s well marked once it’s found! There is plenty of road noise, but it’s by I75. Beautiful woods and a little bit of topography.
December 31, 2020A great there and back. Don’t let A full parking lot scare you off, most of those are bikers for the biking trail. Quiet, well blazed, and hilly for the region. Taken as a there-and-back with Land Bridge Trailhead.
December 19, 2020November 23, 2020My favorite element of this trail is heading East from the entrance to the land bridge. Whether you prefer a paved or traditional walking trail, this route provides adequate scenery and peacefulness to enjoy an outing.
October 4, 2020Fun hills! Peaceful. Friendly riders. Serene. Definitely don't feel like you are in Florida.
July 21, 2020We enjoyed this hike! But not that well marked. Good trail for dogs. Beautiful wildlife. Warm hike so bring lots of water
June 21, 2020A lot of open spaces, not good in the heat. Better during cooler weather.
February 23, 2020Free! The trails are marked, some shared with horses and bikes. Signs for high bear activity, though I didn’t see any live, think we saw some evidence of activity. Most of the trail is shaded except for some paved and unpacked areas.
November 20, 2019Beautiful long scenic trail with some scenery changes. If you're starting at the 49th Ave trailhead by Marion Oaks you take the foot trail then once you reach the Land Bridge sign you cross the little paved road to your left on to the sandy horse trail. DO NOT go straight as there are some seriously thorny flowers that will embed themselves in your skin and they can rip jeans. The flowers are also eye level with kids and dogs.

April 19, 2019My 2 year old Dalmatian and I hiked this section of the FT on 4/19 at about 7am. Parking lot was easy to find and there was tons of parking. Getting on the hiking trail to the FT was fairly simple as long as you read the signs. I read about the trail before hiking and had a pretty good sense of where I was going. The hike itself was beautiful. Easy to navigate but enjoyable to hike. A lot of fun terrain but not too much where I wasn’t comfortable with my dog. I wouldn’t recommend this section to anyone with physical limitations. The Land Bridge is obviously super cool. Absolutely would recommend this hike! Finished the hike at 5.3 miles in 2 hours and 20 minutes.
April 6, 2019First time taking the trail today the trail head very good parking including a picnic covered picnic area very nice trail moderate hills walk you can go over the Land Bridge over I-75 definitely good place to bike and walk also.
