“I've hiked this trail numerous times over the past 2 years, and have always enjoyed the flora and fauna this designated wilderness offers. Alligators are a fairly common sight, and there are numerous variety of birds. Deer, raccoon and otters I have sighted, and yes, there are definitely bears in this area.The tremendous changes in the landscape depending upon the season, can vary greatly. It is a popular site, however and therefore the sense of solitude of being out in nature, will also vary widely depending on when one is on the trail, and how busy it is. The trail is usually well maintained, and only occasionally is the area closed, usually due to flooding or windfall (as in hurricane.)”

“What a beautiful Seminole County trail that they have maintained for the public. It is a 7.1 Mile hike through four very diverse systems. If you begin the loop tour to the right you will walk towards a prairie as it progresses into a swamp area. The trail begins to become harder as more and more tree roots flood the path toward the St Johns River. Do to the two hurricanes last year, the tree rooted Trail around the St Johns River is pretty steep, eroded and in certain parts you will walk sideways on the trail. The trail finally starts to level out a little when you get away from the wetlands and you go towards the forested area underneath the wild Citrus trees. By the time you hit the 5.5 mile marker it starts to even out of it as you begin to walk back towards the parking area. My family and I saw 8 alligators multiple species of birds, squirrels and of course the occasional turtle on the trail. We did however see no bears. My recommendation is if you are a novice hiker or walker you may just want to hike one mile or so in and then the one mile back to the parking area as it gets progressive more difficult and strenuous the further you hike. All in all, a fantastic trail!”
