Recreation
Picayune Strand State Forest offers many recreational opportunities. A 22-mile (35 km) horse trail winds across the Belle Meade Tract from Miller Boulevard to Benfield Road. All horses on the forest must have current negative Coggins Test results, proof of which is to be carried by each rider. An oak shaded primitive camping area can be found near the middle of the trail. Picayune Strand State Forest is part of the Florida Division of Forestry's Trailtrotter program. Please note that off-highway vehicles such as all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), off-highway motorcycles and swamp buggies are prohibited.

Famous quotes containing the word recreation:
“Media mystifications should not obfuscate a simple, perceivable fact; Black teenage girls do not create poverty by having babies. Quite the contrary, they have babies at such a young age precisely because they are poor—because they do not have the opportunity to acquire an education, because meaningful, well-paying jobs and creative forms of recreation are not accessible to them ... because safe, effective forms of contraception are not available to them.”
—Angela Davis (b. 1944)
“Playing snooker gives you firm hands and helps to build up character. It is the ideal recreation for dedicated nuns.”
—Archbishop Luigi Barito (b. 1922)
