Overview
About Florida National Scenic Trail
The Florida National Scenic Trail (also known as the Florida Trail or FT for short) is a congressionally-designated, long-distance hiking trail that weaves its way across Florida from Big Cypress National Preserve in the south to Gulf Islands National Seashore in the western end of Florida’s panhandle.
The Florida Trail is a national treasure, being 1 of only 11 National Scenic Trails in the country, and 1 of 3 contained entirely within a single state. The National Scenic Trails System was created to preserve the country’s scenic, historic, cultural and natural wonders, and the Florida National Scenic Trail provides the opportunity to see unique features in each of these categories.
The Florida Trail is currently about 1,000 miles long, with 1,300 total miles planned. The USDA Forest Service has it divided into four main geographic regions: the Southern region, the Central region, the Northern region and the Panhandle region.
