Hiking, Biking & Running

Florida Trail

Hike on The Florida Trail, Florida’s own National Scenic Trail, stretching more than 1,400 miles across the Sunshine State. Designated by Congress in 1983, The Florida Trail is part of the National Trails System, one of only eight National Scenic Trails, and offers opportunities for short hikes or extended backpacking outings. In the Tallahassee region, The Florida Trail runs through the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge and Apalachicola National Forest. The curve of the state, where the Panhandle meets the Peninsula - the “Big Bend” – can actually be seen from dikes within the St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge. In the Apalachicola National Forest, dwarf cypress forests will awe your senses and bogs of the beautiful carnivorous Pitcher Plants dot the landscape.
