HIKING: John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park

← FL EAST SIDE CREEK LAKE INGRAHAM FL Triple Blaze →

Description

The park maintains three nature trails in two uniquely different environments. The Mangrove Trail is a loop trail on a boardwalk that allows visitors to peacefully view the mangroves and estuaries they thrive in. An observation tower also allows a larger view of this very important ecosystem. Another loop trail, the Wild Tamarind Trail, winds through the park's beautiful tropical hardwood hammock, allowing visitors to view many of the area's native hardwood species. The Grove Trail also winds through the hardwood hammock, but terminates at the Grove. This cultural resource has been replanted with tropical fruit trees, as originally planted by early pioneers in Key Largo.

Directions

Located at Mile Marker 102.5 Overseas Highway in Key Largo.
