Trail Overview

The Water Town Trail, also known as Osceola National Forest Road 278, connects the Feeder Trail at the west end and Coleman Trail at the east end. It takes you through the Osceola National Forest from west to east and gives you access to the Osceola Public Shooting Range. The road conditions are a mixture of packed sand, loose sand, some deep holes, and ditches 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. Osceola National Forest is a National Forest located in northeast Florida. It's a peaceful place where people come to escape their busy lives and reconnect with the land. Flatwoods and swamps transport visitors back in time and provide a tranquil setting for first-rate hunting, fishing, and swimming opportunities.
