60 Florida Trail Association In 1966 Jim Kern, a real estate broker and hiking enthusiast, became fed up with driving all the way to North Carolina to hike the wilderness simply because there were no hiking trails in Florida. Today, thanks to dedicated volunteers there are more than 1,000 miles of the continuous trail have been completed, as well as more than 365 miles of loop trails in state parks, state forests, and other public lands close to urban areas. Land acquisition continues for the Florida Trail, with a goal of protecting a wilderness corridor the length of Florida. What was once considered a far-fetched dream is now reality: following the orange blazes, you can walk the length of Florida from Loop Road in Big Cypress National Preserve to Fort Pickens on Santa Rosa Island.
61 Apalachee Chapter Since 1982 Serves Franklin, Gadsden, Jefferson, Leon, Liberty, and Wakulla counties Maintains the first certified section of the Florida National Scenic Trail, certified by the USDA Forest Service in Maintains over 150 miles of the Florida Trail from the Aucilla River west to the Apalachicola River, including the Aucilla River & Sinks Water Management Areas, St. Marks National Wildlife Refuge, and the Apalachicola National Forest.
