Approximately 80 miles / an hour and a half drive

...how's that for being centrally located? 

​

WHERE CAN I STAY? 

Our hosts at the Hotel Jacaranda have blocked off ALL of their available rooms at a stellar rate for OBG attendees only, with single rooms and suites available. This historic gem of a hotel is beautiful and unique with the most welcoming staff, plus staying on site makes for easy access to all the OBG fun!  Note that you need to CALL BY PHONE and mention Orange Blossom Gravel to book your reservation.

​​​​​​​
If you'd rather sleep out under the stars, there are several nearby campsites available to rent, including Lake Wales Ridge State Forest Reedy Creek Campgrounds and Highland Hammock State Park *Note from campers-past:  Research your campsites if you stay elsewhere; some require a fair amount of hiking to reach the sites themselves.

​

WHAT IF IT RAINS? 

Then we will get wet; welcome to Florida, folks!

Jokes aside, check the weather reports and plan accordingly; we'll do the same and monitor conditions on the routes and make adjustments if needed, but we plan to roll come rain or shine. 

​

WHAT IF I DON'T WANT TO RIDE? 

Come hang with us anyway! We expect (and welcome) spectators for the takeoffs. We will be hangin' all day, join us!

​

WHO CAN COME? 

Y'all means ALL, and all y'all are welcome to join as long as you come in the spirit of community, kindness, and respect.

​

WHO CAN I CONTACT? 

For any questions, hit up our organizer Steve at orangeblossomgravel@gmail.com
