Confirmed from Cross Florida Greenway Overpass' own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
What runners say about Cross Florida Greenway Overpass
Fun day on the paved trail.....crossed over 75 and a fat diamondback sunning itself down by the picnic table.
The Cross Florida Greenway Overpass is a hidden gem! It’s a rare and impressive interstate overpass with stunning views of I-75 below. The smoothly paved trail makes for a comfortable walk or ride, and the connection to the nearby trailhead is seamless.
Its a multi-use trail: walking, jogging, biking, roller blading, etc. There are seperate connecting trials for mountain biking and horseback riding.
Nice overpass for the trail but not really suited for wildlife, too narrow.
