Reviews of Van Fleet Trail - Mabel Trailhead
"Nice flat trail, plenty of wildlife"
"Nice Old Trail... Straight as an Arrow. Long Parking Lot, Covered Picnic Table, and YES, There is Water... Even if the Water Fountain is Not Working... It's Called a Faucet or Water Spicket... Right Next to the Pagoda. Bathrooms are down the Trail. Trail Great for Bike Riding and more, some Debris on Trail, Would NOT Recommend for SKATES."
"This trailhead is right off S.R. 50 but you have to take several side streets to access it. Otherwise a nice area with covered picnic tables, full facilities, and plenty of parking. The water fountain was not working during my visit, so bring plenty of water as there is none on the trail for 20 miles until you get to Green Pond. Nicely shaded during the morning hours."
"Very well maintained paved trail. Make sure you read the signs thoroughly. I rode my Harley slowly down the trail. Beautiful in the woods. Saw a lot of gopher turtles. Boy are they fast. It was a very hot day no one was around........"
"This trip to the area involved a 15 mile bike ride down the trail. It was a hot sunny day but the tree covered Trail was cool and somewhat comfortable. I found it interesting I saw 12 Turtles an otter, two snakes, a hawk and 10,000 squirrels. From what I read the trail is 28 miles with only one small Bend. Trail is also extremely flat. If you're looking for Hills or a interval high intensity workout this wasn't it. This was a good workout with a steady pace, no cars or cross traffic to worry about and very few other people."
