Are you including the Sharon Rose Wiechens Preserve in your 'no place suitable for hiking' assessment?
There is a National Forest northeast of the Villages about a 45 min drive from the top end of the Villages where you could have about 100 sq miles of hiking. You would see lots of wildlife too. I have been there for hunting several years ago. It is tranquil and contains some SERIOUS Florida plants and animals in the wild.
