Question: Where does the southern section of the Florida Scenic National Trail begin?

Answer: Big Cypress National Preserve

The Florida National Scenic Trail, better known as the Florida Trail, is a federally designated, non-motorized recreation trail that meanders approximately 1,500 miles across some of the country’s most beautiful, unique landscapes—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 one of only 11 National Scenic Trails in the country and one of three contained entirely within a single state.
