Manatee Springs State Park Trails
The heart of the Manatee Springs State Park is its namesake first-magnitude spring, that flows a short distance to the Suwannee River. Trail opportunities are available for the entire family. The paved entrance road is a pleasant 2 mile ride, and the off-road trails are easy, fun trails that fast-paced riders could complete in an hour. A more casual rider will enjoy viewing the wildlife along their journey. After taking to the trails, you can refresh yourself in the spring.
