The Green Swamp Loop, of which there are many variations, is a popular motorcycle loop that circumnavigates a section of the Withlacoochee State Forest that encompasses two Wildlife Management Areas. The larger of the two is Richloam; the smaller is Green Swamp.
The loop is 138 miles with an estimated 4.5 hours saddle time. While, as discussed below, the loop includes some fairly rough surfaced roads and a few unpaved roads, it was designed to be suitable for street motorcycles. While tracking through a largely remote area, fueling and food is readily available either on the loop or nearby.
The map tracks through some fairly remote areas but follows maintained public roads. Some of the roadways may be rough (even washboard surfaces) and the track includes some short unpaved sections. I have not included any unmaintained roads. However, there are some stretches of "maintained" road that have a light sandy surface, surface gravel and/or may become muddy/slick when wet. As stated the Green Swamp Loop is designed for street motorcycles; however, if you can't handle rolling through any dirt, any gravel or any sand, the loop ain't for you.
The loop currently stands at 138 miles. The 4.5 hours saddle time estimate comes from BaseCamp Software that I think is a reasonable estimate. The track is available in a .gpx format at the link below.
