Upper Tampa Bay Trail Parking (Wilsky) — Attraction in Citrus Park

I have loved walking this trail for the past two years. The Wilsky entrance has limited parking but they are shaded well most parts of the day. The pavement is intact, no noticeable spots of potholes or dangerous cracks. Splits in two directions from this spot, one headed north and one that wraps around the county dump and goes westward.

Despite being near a trash site it rarely smells and a hill blocks it from too noticeable in most spots. The trail is great for walking, jogging, bikes, and scooters. It gives off an isolated feel despite being near major roadways, and there are even some brief hiking spots that break off from the main trail. The main trail can be a little busy sometimes bust everyone mostly sticks to common courtesy. A very good spot if you need to get out, move, and enjoy...

There is a small restroom there ...can't say much about the condition since i have never ventured in there. I love this trail! It has spots of shaded areas and benches and picnic tables scattered throughout. Very scenic and in some places you go over bridges with ponds and creeks below. Don't miss out ...do visit but remember that they do close by...

This is a great trail, but all the cycle wanna bees make it UNSAFE. I cannot believe the police do not kick them off the trail. they endanger pedestrians due to their lack of respect for others. I almost get hit all the time and have to watch my back while I am jogging so they dont run me over. I know they are a menace at this point and it is sad they ruin it for others. They do not ride on the road because they do not want cars to hit them, but care not for others. I have been knocked over and sideswiped too many times. I am posting this because it needs to be addressed for the...
