The 1.25 mile Nature Trail at Cary State Forest winds and twists through scenic flatwoods, cypress swamp and includes a boardwalk that takes hikers across the wetlands. This trail is marked with yellow blazes. The Nature Trail boardwalk is dedicated to the memory of Lee and Mimi Adams, whose memorial funds were donated by their estate for the construction of the boardwalk. The Nature Trail at Cary State Forest is included in the Florida Forest Service's Trailwalker Program. Information on this hiking program is available at the trailhead kiosk on Pavilion Road, the forest headquarters, our website or by telephoning 850/414-0871.
