Trail Length: 16 miles Width: 8 feet wide (3.5 miles is 12 feet wide) Surface: Paved with Asphalt Route: Point to Point County: Leon and Wakulla Counties Nearest Towns: Tallahassee and St. Marks The trail first opened in 1988 and it was built in the bed of the abandoned Tallahassee-St. Marks Railroad Line. It begins near the city of Tallahassee, runs past the town of Woodville and the Apalachicola National Forest, and ends in St. Marks near the gulf coast, where the St. Marks River and Wakulla rivers come together. The trail has an adjacent horse trail, and the southern two mile segment is part of the Florida National Scenic Trail, which continues across the St. Mark's River to Port Leon and beyond (the Florida National Scenic Trail is a long-distance hiking trail that will someday extend from the far northwestern end of florida to the tip of southern Florida. Skaters at the north trailhead near Tallahassee From the Florida State Parks Service: From Katheryn Mears, Florida State Park Services Specialist: "The Tallahassee-St. Marks Historic Railroad Trail State Park is 16 miles long. The trailhead is on the south end of Tallahassee, Florida, and the terminus is in the city of St. Marks, Florida. The trail is very flat with only a slight decline in elevation as one travels towards St. Marks. Some parts of the trail have a canopy of trees for shade, other segments are quite sunny. Terrain varies from pine flatwoods on the northern end, to marshy on the southern end. Restrooms with water fountains are provided at the trailhead and at the midpoint, commonly referred to as Wakulla Station. There is also a water fountain at 3.5 miles from the trailhead. The St. Marks end of the trail offers local restaurants and stores for food and beverages. San Marcos de Apalache Historic State Park is located at the confluence of the two rivers, and provides the opportunity to learn about the vast history of this area."
