If you’re more adventurous who prefers to explore the outdoors than staying cooped up in some mall, you would be happy to explore nice trails here in Jax. Here are some of my personal favorites that are just too cool to be missed:
Castaway Island Preserve
885 San Pablo Rd S
Jacksonville, FL 32224
Phone number (904) 630-4100
Take a lovely walk along the trail along with kids and even your pet. You can enjoy watching the sunrise and even picnic tables to enjoy a nice meal. If you want to ease your mind off some things or just simply want to think about some deep thoughts, this is the spot.
Tillie K Fowler Regional Park
700 Roosevelt Blvd
Jacksonville, FL 32244
Phone number (904) 573-2498
If you’re up for a short hike along the forest, this park would give you nice trail to explore. It’s not that crowded and you can enjoy a lovely view of the marsh and the river as a reward for your hike. Another good thing is it’s free of charge!
Jacksonville-Baldwin Rail-Trail
1798 Imeson Rd
Jacksonville, FL 32099
If you love biking and enjoying nice scenery, this trail will truly be enjoyable. You don’t need to be stressed out by traffic along the paved road and some water fountains to bring some extra convenience.
Julington-Durbin Preserve
13130 Bartram Park Blvd2
Jacksonville, FL 32258
This pristine place provides a beautiful running trail with a scenic forest scene. No need to worry about hot temperatures during summer for the lovely tree cover would give enough shade for you.
