It's not anything you want to truck your quad 75 miles for, but there's some pretty good local riding just north of Hernando. We spent 2-3 hours there and didn't feel like we were riding in circles. In fact, a small GPS or even a compass wouldn't be a bad idea.
Leaving Inverness (34450) towards Hernando, 200 & 41 split. Follow 41 to the left past the split towards Dunellon for 1.2 miles and then turn right into the woods on the dirt road to park.
OR follow 200 right past the split towards Ocala for about 2 miles past the split. Watch for Adams road on the right, and then turn left onto a dirt/sand road into the woods.
There are some pretty good trails back in there. Google Hernando on youtube and you'll see a bit of hill climbing taken there too.
Parking suggestions are marked on the map. My F150 2wd makes it okay even with 2 quads on it, but it's loose sand in places. The riding area outlined in red on the map is a rough guess on my part, since most trails and hills are obscured by tree cover. (Also helps keep the heat down.)
Types of riding:
Some steep hills, miles of trails, mudholes, whoops but mostly near the paved road.
