• Kissimmee - Park for free and pick up the bikes at the lakefront in Kissimmee, Florida.

You’ll ride about 2 miles south along the lakefront where Sand Hill Cranes and even a peacock are frequently spotted. Others have seen turtles, rabbits, squirrels, lots of birds, and even the occasional snake crossing the path. You’ll cross over a brand new pedestrian bridge in 2024 that leads into the lakefront park.

• Saint Cloud - At the lakefront park, you will find several more miles of paved lakefront trails, a pavilion in the middle of the lake that you can ride out to for some amazing 360-degree views of the lake, a free splash pad, a boat marina, a fishing pier, a lakefront restaurant, a sandy beach, volleyball nets, a playground, a concession stand, several restroom facilities, plus lots of picnic tables and benches throughout the park.

You will be sure to spot even more Florida wildlife on this part of the ride as alligators and turtles are often seen sunning themselves at the lakefront ponds. Watch for the black squirrels, rabbits, and the families of ducks frequently seen along the lakefront. Stop at one of the many shady spots along the trail to sit, relax, and experience nature up close. Or stop and watch the “brave” people swimming at the beach, where there are alligators and snakes.

• Saint Cloud - If you are in the shopping mood, head down the brand new paved multi-use trail in 2024 that leads from the lakefront to the downtown area. This 1-mile-long trail winds down the center of Florida Avenue and takes you right into the downtown area where you can park your bike and walk around the local shops and restaurants. The ice cream shop is super popular.
