There are several miles of mixed use horse, mountain biking and hiking trails here. About half consists of
soggy, bumpy and often submerged double track. But if you slog it out from the trail head for about half a
mile you'll come to a surprise. Stretching about for half a mile to each side is a manmade raised berm
covered from end to end with large palm trees. And running down the middle is a hard packed trail. It is a
unique experience. The single track is a simple ride with fallen palm leaves, roots and tortoise holes to
negotiate. There are a few welcome breaks in the berm which drop back down to the soggy terrain for
about 30 feet and climb back up sharply on the other side. The south portion of the berm has a harder
packed trail and great views of Lake Jesup. At each end of the berm you'll find a loop which drops down to
the small naturally forested areas. The trail was dry here but still soft and not great for biking. Both loops
require you to cross a ditch with about a foot of nasty water to get back onto the berm. If you have
something you don't want swamp mud on you should leave it at home.
