Suwannee Fat Tire Festival 2026

About the Event

Immerse yourself in the serene beauty of White Springs, Florida during the Fall Adventure Festival from October 22-25, 2026. Nestled along the banks of the Suwannee River and surrounded by lush greenery, this event offers a unique blend of outdoor activities that cater to all levels of adventurers.
Experience the thrill of mountain biking on over 50 miles of scenic trails designed for no-drop rides led by professional guides from Shred Better MTB Coaching. Whether you're an experienced cyclist or just starting out, there are routes suitable for everyone, including a special night ride under starlit skies. The quiet rural roads around White Springs provide the perfect setting for gravel and road cycling enthusiasts to explore at their own pace.
For those who prefer water sports, kayak tours led by local experts will take you through the serene waters of the Suwannee River on both Friday and Saturday. A full-day paddle down the Santa Fe River adds another layer of adventure, allowing participants to enjoy breathtaking views while gliding along tranquil rivers.
Hikers can lace up their boots for guided walks along sections of the Florida Trail that start right from your campsite within Stephen Foster Folk Culture Center State Park. The trails offer a mix of flat and hilly terrain, providing opportunities to connect with nature in its purest form.
The festival also includes camping accommodations at the park where all campsites come equipped with water and electricity (most 30 amps). Meals are provided starting from Friday morning until Sunday lunchtime, including vegetarian options for every meal. Enjoy a potluck dinner on Thursday night as part of your registration package.
In addition to physical activities, there's plenty to do in the evenings. A wine & cheese meet-and-greet kicks off social events on Friday evening followed by a beer social and bonfire complete with a Halloween costume contest and Huffy Toss game on Saturday. Yoga sessions led at the River Gazebo provide an opportunity for relaxation amidst nature.
Registration fees cover two or three nights of camping, all meals starting from breakfast on Thursday morning until lunchtime Sunday, guided tours through White Springs Historic District, free mountain bike skills clinics conducted by J.C. Mazza (PMBIA certified and GSMBC registered), and great raffle prizes donated by Champion Cycling and AIA Cycles.
Don't miss out on the early bird discounts available to members of the Suwannee Bicycle Association when registering for this event. Remember that campsites are assigned based on your type of camping equipment and registration order, so it's best to sign up as soon as possible. Optional cancellation insurance is also offered during the registration process.
Join us in White Springs from October 22-25, 2026, for a weekend filled with adventure, camaraderie, and unforgettable experiences along Florida’s picturesque waterways and trails.
