We parked and walked around. It was beautiful. A paved trail around a lake and plenty of birds to see. I plan on returning and would be happy to pay a non resident fee if I have to.

This year Reid wanted to explore some different Florida trails and we decided to do a couple of different trails that were about 50 miles each. The first was the Sun Coast trail and the second was the Withlacoochee State Trail. Due to the logistics we had to ride these trails on different days, as we had to park cars at each end of the trail. We rode Suncoast first and while it was next to a highway on one side which was less appealing, there was still quite a bit of wild life on it, including crocodiles, and plenty of birds and tortoise. Additionally, there were quite a few good hills with nice overpasses. We had the trail pretty much to ourself. Really enjoyed it. One cute thing was that there were runners bibs that had been ironed onto the asphalt every 50 yards. Very cute. I recommend it highly!
