Yes, there is hiking in Florida! You don’t need mountains to hike. River of Lakes Heritage Corridor boasts some of the most beautiful Florida landscapes around, with a stunning diversity of wildlife. Winter is a great time to hike in Florida, unlike in the mountains most people associate with “hiking.” If you hike in the warmer months, you will need plenty of water and bug spray.
Many of these trails are shorter, and end in springs where you can cool off in the summer. Winter provides a better climate for long hikes, as well as more wildlife viewing opportunities.
See the Cycling, Paddling, and Equestrian sections for more trail options. Many of the trail systems listed below are multi-use.
