The Florida National Scenic Trail stretches about 1,400 miles from Gulf Islands National Seashore to Big Cypress National Preserve. The northernmost section of the trail, located within this park, begins at Fort Pickens and runs parallel to the coastline for 7 miles before exiting the park, then reentering in the Santa Rosa area for another 7 miles. The first few miles of trail provide opportunities to view wildlife, camp, and dip your toes in the ocean.
