      Both paved and off-road bicycle trails are available. The paved trails run along the old roadbed of Old Dixie Highway, for about two miles. The Camp Murphy Off-road Bicycle Trail System is a nine-mile network of mountain bike trails, with loops rated for beginners all the way to "black diamond, experts only." Bicycles may be rented at the River Store. Helmets are highly recommended for all cyclists and Florida law requires helmets for cyclists age 16 and under.
