It is located west of US Route 441 and south of Archer Road.
Bivens Arm is a unique environment, which supports a wide diversity of plants and animals. Tumblin Creek, drains into Bivens Arm creating this beautiful body of water. Bivens Arm overflows onto Paynes Prairie.
A beautiful trial takes you to and around the lake. It almost doesn't look like you are in Florida because of the thick trees and plants at your feet. I ran on this trail and around the lake.
It is very marshy and the trees tower above. The length of the trail is 1.5 miles, but you can do it once, twice or even three times if you prefer to go on longer walks or runs.
It is open 9-5 daily, and the people working at the front will tell you to be careful for alligators! All I say to that is Go Gators!!
Enjoy and explore this hidden treasure of Gainesville!!
