The Florida National Scenic Trail is a 1,500 mile federally designated trail beginning at Big Cypress National Preserve and ending at Gulf Islands National Seashore.
We are the Florida Trail Association, the 501(c)(3) nonprofit responsible for developing, maintaining, protecting, & promoting a network of hiking trails throughout the state, including the unique Florida National Scenic Trail, commonly known as the “Florida Trail,” along with our primary agency partner, the U.S. Forest Service.
Our vision is to protect the natural, cultural, and historic landscapes along the Florida National Scenic Trail for future generations by providing a continuous trail system built by and for the people of Florida.
We do this by providing volunteer, recreational, and educational opportunities for the diverse population of our state and beyond.
