Ocala National Forrest camping and riding

[Skitzo]

I'm going up at the end of march. Can any one tell me anything about it? I'm camping in Alexander Springs so how much of a pain is going to be to get to Big Scrub from there? Or is it?

Any info will be very much appreciated!

First you cant ride your quad out of Alexander Springs. You have to tow it out to an area like Big Scrub. Its about 15 miles to get from Alexander Springs to Big Scrub. The only 2 campgrounds that you can ride from are Big Scrub and Lake Delancy West

Hey thanks for that info. Are you aware of what is needed to ride there (registration, etc.)?

nothing, unload your quad and have fun   , that is if your talkin about ridin at big scrub, it cost to camp there obviously, but if u park on the power lines it dont

Any pinpointers you can give me regarding big scrub? and which is better big scrub or delancy west?

Scrub is a really good place to go if your going there for the first time. Only think I have to consider when going to onf is my kids and there safety. There are soo many people at and around scrub that its hard to keep track of who's coming and going and from what direction. After you go there once though you will be able to investigate places to park away from scrub that arn't as busy. You just gotta keep someone at your rig so everything you go with comes home with you if ya know what I mean. Its a great place onf really is.

No rules, Just ride.
You do need to stay off of numbered roads, and there will be absolutely no littering. PLEASE take out more than what you take in.
