Description
Located in Lithia, Florida, Alafia River State Park is host to miles of bike trails. One of those trails includes wooden ramps that allow cyclers to grab some air. This is a shot of a cyclist rounding the curve that leads to the jumps. There are different levels for different experiences.
Any sunny weekend draws hundreds, if not thousands of cyclers to the park. There are also regular hiking paths and equestrian trails.
The park’s former use as a phosphate mining operation has created a unique hiking or biking experience in Florida. The mining company closed down before Florida law required miners to fill in their holes. As a result the park features hills and ponds.
