Confirmed from Seminole Wekiva Trail - San Sebastian 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.

🏞️ beautiful scenery 5 mentions

“Beautiful trail for walking, bicycling, roller blading.”

🌳 shaded & cool 5 mentions

“Lots of shade, amenities, and only a few major road crossings at Montgomery Rd, Douglas Ave, and EE Williamson Road.”

🪧 well-marked 2 mentions

“A couple of road crossings but everything is well marked and cars are very aware of the trail.”

This is one of my favorites trails! It combines green areas and urban views. I recommend to do the trail to the end when you can reach the little portion of the Wekiva lake or springs. For me the last portion of the trail is the best and usually is not as busy as the main trail.

★★★★☆ — Jose , Mar 2019

One of the best trails in the area. At the beginning of the trail there's access to restrooms, parks, and a river. A little further along you can find "paint-the-trail" and some restaurants.

★★★★★ — David , Mar 2024

Water fountains are here. Bathrooms are not here, but they are available at nearby Westmonte Park. Lots of shade trees and a nice trail. Accessible by bike from several other parks, such as San Lando and the County Softball complex.

★★★★☆ — Joanna , May 2024

Beautiful trail for walking, bicycling, roller blading. They also have restrooms sporadically throughout the trail. are Furry friends are allowed. There are restaurants and convenient stores along the way. There are really cool painted fences along part of the trail.

Trail conditions & character

What this trail is actually like underfoot and overhead, taken from its own listing and from reviews. Each one links to every other trail with the same character. Busy or quiet is reported as a plain fact, not a plus or a minus — a runner heading out alone at dawn often wants company on the path, and someone running intervals wants an empty one.
