This trail is a lung buster. the trail is comprised of climbs and decents that will test you fitness level. The downhills are fast and fun and the climbs are steep for Florida. It is located behind Tung Nut and Hammock Hub

The bike trailhead is different from the hiking trailhead entrance. Take I-75 to US 441 (exit 399) and drive Southeast for 2.8 miles (through the city of Alachua). Turn South (right) onto Progress Blvd and drive 0.7 miles to park entrance. Pay your $4 day use fee and follow the grade road on the right to the bike trailhead. Address: 13201 Progress Blvd, Alachua, FL 32615
This is the most challenging trail in the San Felasco system. Constant elevation change makes it a great trail. It is hard due to the steep climbs, but not too technical. This trail is not to be missed, and one of the best in the Gainesville area!
| ThankExcellent leg burner. It'll test your endurance, and you'll probably love it.
| ThankA bit more challenging than some of the other sections, but nothing overwhelming. Climbs are lengthened out so they are not too steep. Likewise the DH portions are fun but no drops to be found. Great trail for a fit intermediate rider. Don't let the expert rating keep you off this section.
| ThankI believe this is the toughest trail out here. Challenging but a lot of fun. Quads will burn on climbs and plenty of speed on decent. Many roots also add to the challenge.
| ThankGreat trail for testing your endurance and technical skills! Tough trail but a lot of fun!!!
| ThankI go to this trail to gauge my fitness level. Lots of climbing and decending. I love the downhills on this trail. The best i have ridden in Florida.
