    This may be the best bike trail in northeast Florida. Its ecological diversity is amazing. It traverses a multitude of ancient pliocene, north-south beach ridges that parallel each other. At the high points (ridges) are mesic hardwood forests or pine forests. At the low points are cypress-gum swamps with an understory of ferns. At the eastern end is a section of limestone karst topography with considerable relief and lots of curves. From swale to summit of the beach ridges takes about 0.5 mile each time and the elevation gain or loss is probably about 20 feet. More than half of the trail is within the long protected forests of the Paynes Prairie State Preserve. And the BBQ place in Hawthorne is a welcome treat.

    Thanks for the fun video. I enjoy your channel. I’m traveling to Florida in February from a cold northern state. Biking is part of the plan. If you had to chose between this Gainesville to Hawthorn trail or the Withlacoochee near Inverness, Fl (watched you video on that too) which one would you choose? Hills are not a problem. Which is prettier or more fun? If you have another trail you’d recommend more highly that would be great too!

    Great video. Definitely want to ride this trail. My wife and I did the Withlacoochee after watching one of your videos. Are there places to stop along the way to like have a picnic?
