Trail Overview
The Lake Jumper Trail, also known as Ocala National Forest Road 5-18.9, connects Lake Eaton Trail at the north end and North Prairie West-East at the south end in the north part of the Ocala National Forest. The trail gives you access to two primitive boat ramps at Lake Jumper and Lake Lou. The road conditions are a mixture of packed sand, loose sand, and deep holes that can turn into 2-foot 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.
