The North Shore is pretty deserted no shade in either section, TONS of birds and aligators. The West end is nicer, has a loop and a cool narrow bridge and a coupe observation towers. Mostly hard packed maintenance roads, some grassy trails also, very flat welands.
From the intersection of Jones ave and SR 441 in Zellwood FLorida (near an Advance Auto Parts) go west on Jones ave. Go left (south) at dead end onto CR448A and it dead ends in the parking area for the "North Shore" part of the trail.<br /><br />OR<br /><br />Go right (West) onto CR48 from CR 448A and go approximatly 3 miles and make a left (south) onto Ranch road. Make a right (east) to continue on Ranch road then your<br /><br />first right onto Robbins road make a Left (east) onto Peebles drive then first right onto Carolyn lane. Parking will be on right for the West part of the trail.<br /><br />
