Explore natural Florida with an adventure on the state’s most notable hiking trail
Stretching 1,500 miles between Pensacola and the Everglades, the Florida National Scenic Trail has over 100 trailheads, most located within an easy drive from nearby urban areas. A guide to the best scenic day hikes and overnight trips along this state-spanning footpath, Florida Trail Hikes leads readers to showy overlooks, wildflower-dotted prairies, river rapids, steep bluffs, tall sand dunes, and many other compelling destinations.
Updated in this third edition with the most current route details, this book provides full-color maps, options for lengthening and shortening hikes, and information on nearby towns for use as base camps. Selected from the personal experiences of the authors, the hikes in this book include many loop trails convenient for solo hikers as well as several accessible trail sections. Sandra Friend and John Keatley also offer the backstory of the Florida Trail, first blazed in 1966, and the hidden history of Florida that hikers will encounter on their journeys.
