Mountain biking
The Emeralda Marsh Trail is a wide and smooth gravel path that passes through the marshes and wetlands making up the Emeralda Marsh Conservation Area. The path is often quiet and offers a lot of solitude. It can be bumpy at times, but most tires can handle this packed-dirt trail.

Hiking
Emeralda Marsh Trail is a smooth, wide dirt path shared by hikers and bikers. This area was designated a National Natural Landmark in 1974, and the district began restoring it in 1991. Restoration gave former farms flood control and managed water levels to encourage wetland development. The marsh is actively managed and improves the water of Lake Griffin and the Ocklawaha River. The area is home to diverse wildlife, including sandhill cranes, various duck species, bald eagles, white pelicans, and a good amount of alligators.
