Trail Overview
The Ocala National Forest SE 13th Avenue connects Ocklawaha Trail at the north end and State Route 314A at the south end of the trail at the west boundary of the Ocala National Forest. The trail gives you access to some dirt roads around the Tomahawk Lake and the Ocklawaha Prairie. The road conditions are a mixture of packed sand, loose sand, and some 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.
