Next, 20 miles of power-line trails along Lake Rousseau to pick up the Florida Trail south of Dunnellon. You'll travel on the beautiful Florida Trail for 50 miles through the Cross Florida Greenway. Once south of Silver Springs and the edge of the Ocala National Forest there will be 20 miles of dirt roads to reconnect to the Florida Trail. Then, you'll head north 60 miles on the most scenic part of the Florida Trail through the rolling hills of the Ocala National Forest.
