About the Florida Trail
The Florida Trail is one of the 11 National Scenic trails due to its rich and diverse landscape. While hiking from the Big Cypress National Preserve to Fort Pickens, you'll cross the entire state of Florida, and encounter some interesting sceneries, including lush forests, vast wetlands, lots of lakes and rivers, wild animals, and walk through many cultural attractions. The Florida trail is also unique because it's best hiked during the winter season due to fewer mosquitoes and bugs, and cooler temperatures. It's unlike any other thru-hike within the United States, which is why it's such a popular thru hike.
