1. Florida Caverns State Park multiuse trails
Florida Caverns State Park is at 3345 Caverns Road, Marianna, FL 32446. The park experiences and amenities page says the Sinkhole trail (1.1 miles, red blaze) and Bumpnose trail (6.8 miles, orange blaze) multiuse trails in the back of the park are accessible to cyclists, equestrians (with proof of negative Coggins), and hikers. Visitors using the multiuse trails should park at the Blue Hole day-use area and should not park in or block horse campsites. Trail maps are available at the ranger station upon request, and helmets are highly recommended for all cyclists; Florida law requires helmet use for anyone age 16 and under. The park closes at sunset and visitors must exit by that time.
Florida State Parks eBike rules
Florida State Parks FAQs state that electric-assist bicycles/e-bikes are defined in Florida Statute as bicycles and are therefore permitted on Florida state trails and on trails designated as multi-use or specifically intended for bicycles within Florida's state parks. If a trail is designated for pedestrians or equestrians only, you may not ride a bicycle or e-bike on that trail. Bicycles and e-bikes may also be used on paved public access roads within Florida's state parks. Stay on the Sinkhole and Bumpnose multiuse designations cited above.

Half day: Ride the 1.1-mile Sinkhole multiuse trail from Blue Hole access and reverse before sunset.
