Best Beauty Spots Along the Florida Trail

Posted 01/30/14 by Sandra Friend and John Keatley in America's Trails | Tagged with Best Of, Florida

One of the biggest surprises that new-to-Florida hikers discover is that Florida is a very scenic place.

With the 1,400-mile ribbon of the Florida Trail stretching from Pensacola Beach to the Big Cypress National Preserve between Miami and Naples, Florida's botanical diversity puts on quite a show. Whether you prefer backpacking or day hiking, these beauty spots along our National Scenic Trail will have you walking slowly with camera in hand to capture the essence of natural Florida.
