Florida’s Nature Coast: Manatees, turtles, lizards, birds, pigs and plentiful bird life are some of what will bring you here to the central west coast of Florida in Citrus, Levy, Dixie and Taylor counties. Many bountiful freshwater springs feed rivers flowing into the vast Gulf of Mexico, creating almost a million square miles of amazing habitat, perfect for all these creatures and also ideal for nature-loving cyclists.
Of course this area is exhaustingly hot and humid so why not enjoy it from your climate-controlled cycling room in comfort?
You’ll explore canopy roads and manatees in Crystal River and see small fishing towns like Cedar Key and Steinhatchee. Also near the gulf, long stretches of marshes and palmetto hammocks will be found on Ozello Trail and Fort Island Trail. Rainbow Springs State Park and the Withlacoochee Trail in Dunnellon are also featured for their outstanding beauty. Southeastern American tranquility at its best with wildlife everywhere for 60 minutes.
