Confirmed from Ormond Scenic Loop & Trail'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.
Peaceful scenic loop offering a drive, hiking, and kayaking, as well as fishing.
What runners say about Ormond Scenic Loop & Trail
“We drove the Ormond Scenic Loop Trail just to take in the sights, but honestly, it wasn’t much different from the rest of the Florida scenery.”
“That said, if you're looking for a peaceful spot to bike, jog, or get outdoors away from the city, this would be a nice option.”
I’ve lived a few miles from here for a few years. I’ve bicycled, motorcycled, hiked, cruised it with friends in cars and fished🐠 from shore countless time and recently kayaked it. Always loved this place.
We drove the Ormond Scenic Loop Trail just to take in the sights, but honestly, it wasn’t much different from the rest of the Florida scenery. Considering we went out of our way to see it, it felt a bit underwhelming.
The loop is pretty cool to go thru. I like it more on my bike and at around 6-7pm when the sun is starting to set. You get to drive thru a pink sky 🌌
Beautiful and peaceful drive with amazing views of nature. Perfect for a relaxing ride or walk! 🌿
