About This Trail

Imported description

The Yellow Trail is a 9-mile route through an old phosphate mining area that has been converted to a recreation area. There is elevation gain on these trails that are not normally found in central Florida because of the mining in this area. It is now home to a variety of wildlife and is also used for fishing, canoeing, and kayaking. There are both archery and gun ranges on the property. There is a $3 day use fee with a manned station. The hiking trails are accessible through a trail at the Saddle Creek Recreation Area, which is located between Highway 92 and Saddle Creek Road a little south of Tenoroc.
