The 46-mile Withlacoochee State Trail is a great place to ride. The surface is asphalt paved and the trail winds through or near several small towns as well as through the City of Inverness. Much of the trail is through forest with a lovely, shady canopy.

Whispering Pines Park

Reviewed By susann85 - Rochester, United States

We went here with our dogs to do some geocaching and we were amazed at all of the fun things to do here- tennis, basketball, softball, swimming (pool), etc. And it is free admission to the park! We had a really great day (well, until one lady let her dog loose and attacked our dogs...but that can happen anywhere).

Fort Cooper State Park

Reviewed By wilsonmrslindsayw - Bangor, United Kingdom

We have read several reviews stating that there is nothing to do at this Park. What nonsense! There is plenty to do here. You can rent a canoe, ride your bike through the trails or put on your walking shoes and setoff for the Fort site. There is not much of the Fort to see, but the walk is amazing and the view from the top of the site over the lake is impressive. We stayed for about three hours, had lunch and then walked over to the bat house. The rest rooms are spotless and there is a good children's playground. We will return next year, do not change a single thing.
