Eaton Creek - ONF 1

The Eaton Creek Trail, also known as Ocala National Forest Road 1, connects CR 316 at the north end and CR 314 at the south end in the North Part of the ONF. The trail shares parts with the Tread Lightly! Four Wheel Drive Way (Florida's only Jeep Badge of Honor trail) and is crossing that trail several times. The road conditions are a mixture of packed sand, loose sand, and some deep holes that can turn into 2 feet deep mud holes after rainy days. The road is always wide enough for two vehicles to pass. 4WD and high clearance are recommended. All vehicles must be street-legal. Ocala National Forest is in Florida, north of Orlando. It's known for its large areas of sand pine scrub forest. The Juniper Springs, Alexander Springs, and Salt Springs recreation areas have natural pools and canoe runs. Hundreds of lakes and ponds include Lake Kerr and the enormous Lake George.
