Nature Coast State Trail
Adventure awaits you on the Trail! Don't miss the Suwannee River Bridge near Fanning Springs. Winter time provides perfect weather for hiking, biking and other strenuous exercise. The Nature Coast State Trail provides an excellent opportunity to experience the Sunshine State’s “off the beaten path.” The trail consists of two primary alignments built along former rail lines that meet at Wilcox Junction, connecting the communities of Cross City, Trenton, Fanning Springs, Old Town and Chiefland. A historic train trestle carries the trail across the Suwannee River near Old Town. Trail users can cool off in the 72-degree springs in nearby Fanning Springs State Park, or watch for more wildlife at Andrews Wildlife Management Area.

Length: 32 miles (paved)
