Cross Seminole Trail
The Cross Seminole Trail is a paved recreational trail that has been designated as one of Seminole County’s Showcase Trails because of its length, beauty and accommodations for various users. The trail has also been designated as part of the Florida National Scenic Trail. Much of the trail corridor is heavily vegetated, providing a peaceful and picturesque experience for an urban trail. Currently, the trail runs from Winter Springs to Oviedo. The trail will eventually connect with the Seminole-Wekiva Trail creating a 30 mile continuous trail through Altamonte Springs, Longwood, Lake Mary, Winter Springs, and Oviedo, and with the Cady Way Trail and the Orange County Trails System.
