Description
About the Preserve
On December 6, 2018, Alachua Conservation Trust in partnership with Alachua County closed on the 111- acre Serenola Forest. Alachua County through the Alachua County Forever program used money generated by the 1/2-cent sales tax from Wild Spaces Public Places to purchase 103 acres. ACT purchased the remaining 7.7 acres with funding from supporters like you, private foundations, and charitable grants.
Access Info
Trails are unpaved, and in some places can be muddy, uneven, or wet. Parking is available at Idlywild Elementary School on weekends. There are two street parking spots available by the main trail head during the weekday, but trail access is primarily by foot or bike.
