Follow the orange blazes! The 1,400-mile Florida Trail is within an hour's drive of most Floridians, with trailheads along many major highways such as US 98, US 90, US 441, US 301, and more.

Most people day hike on segments of the Florida Trail close to home, or explore the loop trails of the Florida Trail System in nearby state parks, state forests, and county parks.

Backpackers and long distance hikers need to consider logistical issues before heading out on a longer hike, and for that, our maps and guidebooks can assist you in planning an enjoyable trip.
