Hiking

It is time to take a hike! Trails in the Timucuan Preserve take you through shady hammocks and along pristine beaches. You can walk along the paths used by Timucuan Indians, or along the roads that enslaved men, women, and children walked to the fields. While hiking, you'll experience the beauty of the rivers and salt marshes. Choose a link and learn more about where a hike in the Preserve can take you.
