FT


During the winter of 2019 we had the pleasure of hiking the Florida National Scenic Trail and all of our posts are conveniently listed here.  The FT starts in Oasis National Park near Miami and travels North up to the Panhandle of  Florida where it then progresses westward to end at Fort Pickens near Pensacola.  There are different trail choices around metropolitan areas, so the the distance can be from 1100 to 1500 miles.  The trail is broken into regions.
