Quiet and untraveled trail. As Bryan stated earlier, not anyone else was on the trail all day. The northeastern part (yellow blaze) was a little muddy and overgrown. But, otherwise, well maintained.
Three separate loop trails combine to form one grand loop of about seven miles. The area is flat, but trails seem maintained by running a tractor with a till over them, which digs up soft sand and makes hiking challenging and biking impossible in some areas. You will find dirt road biking in the same conservation area however, and horseback riding is also encouraged. Trail use was very light during my visits. A great stop if traveling FL-301 near Citra, outside of Ocala.
