Florida City, Southern Glades Trail

Terrain:  Largely flat but rough, can be technical where limestone is abundant.

To Get There: Take I-75 to SR 826 which turns into US 1.  Head West on SR 9336 until you reach the c111 canal (about 1 mile before the Everglades National Park entrance).  At this point you can ride the North or South trails.

The North trail is called Everglades Trail, the South trail is called the Southern Glades Trail.  This trail is very long and flat, but there is one hill of approximately 5 meters (18 ft) in height.  The trail is maintained in part by Miami Dade County, South Florida Water Management District, and the Everglades National Park.  It runs alongside the Southeastern border of the National Park and ends in a small bay called Manatee Bay.  The trail itself is composed of several loops which can total more than 50+ miles.  Maps are available at the trailhead.  (Review by Paul.)
