Confirmed from Moccasin Creek's 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 Moccasin Creek
“The scenery is beautiful!”
“Noth the trail shares its windy paith with walkers, ruinners, dog walkers, two-wheel bikes and more than a few varieties of adult trikes.”
This is a park of the Oldsmar Trail system which runs from Forest Lake Road and meanders north and westward to Mapleleaf Road. The the lake is mostly hidden from view, its presence can be noted by several wood bridges that allow passage of waters from Upper Tampa Bay thru Moccasin Creek to a small lake to the north.
Take my dog for a walk here. I love it. Nice people, quite, always something to see.
Small trail through the swampy areas. Pretty and feels much mure remote than it actually is. No traffic noise but also pretty well used, can get crowded at times. Amazing for a nature walk. I often bring a sandwich and have a picnic. No pokestops :(
