Trail Overview
The Thomas Trail, also known as Ocala National Forest Road 49, connects Highway 42 at the south end and South Boundary Trail at the north end in the south part of the Ocala National Forest. The trail gives you access to the south boundary of Ocala National Forest. The road conditions are a mixture of packed sand, loose sand, and some deep holes that can turn into 2 feet deep mud holes after rainy days. The road is always wide enough for two vehicles to pass. 4WD and high clearance are recommended. All vehicles must be street-legal. Ocala National Forest is in Florida, north of Orlando. It's known for its large areas of sand pine scrub forest. The Juniper Springs, Alexander Springs, and Salt Springs recreation areas have natural pools and canoe runs. There are hundreds of lakes and ponds in the region including Lake Kerr and the enormous Lake George.
