Confirmed from Moses Creek Conservation Area East Trailhead'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.

Great for hiking, trail running, great views, biking I would say off road biking because there's no mountain but it is a mountain bike trail. Rough camping, decent size alligators and the most vicious biting insects I've ever found. Deer flies that will keep up with you as you bike.
Lots of different trails in Moses Creek. Here you can find all three hiking, bicycle and horseback riding trails. I walked the main trail for a while then walked the section 3 and section 4 bicycle trails which brought me out to some beautiful views. Overall I walked about 5 mi. The trails are in excellent condition.
This is one of those places I've passed a million times on the way to other parks and made a note to check out but never did until now. And wow, am I glad I finally did. Moses Creek is an amazing area for wildlife, birds, flora, hiking and mountain biking. First off, the area is HUGE.
I like this place... They have some cool wooden features, they have bypasses for newbie riders and the trails are well maintained with good signage. This is no tillie or Hannah or Mala Compra but then again, if u live in St. Augustine like me, no decent mtb trail is close...
