Hickory Bluffs Preserve

Hiking
picnics
and a
river
Hickory Bluffs Preserve is a hiking area that offers several miles of easy hiking on trails that end up right on the St John’s River.
Nothing difficult or exhausting, most of the trails are soft sand on very flat terrain. Easy to walk but probably not a place to bring a mountain bike.
This whole area was probably some kind of farm and most of the trees are on the small and young side. Lots of cool pines, oaks, cypress and saw palmettos with the occasional large, mature and spooky tree thrown in.
The hike ends at the St John’s River and there is a little picnic area, primitive bathrooms and of course great views of the river. Not a place for a serious hike but a lovely little place for a few hours with nature.
