Little Big Econ State Forest

Little Big Econ State Forest is a protected area in Central Florida featuring wetlands, floodplains, and uplands along the Econlockhatchee River. The natural landscape provides diverse habitats and recreational opportunities for visitors exploring the property.

Visible remains of the Flagler Railroad System from 1910 are preserved as trestle pilings along the river. This historic infrastructure was later integrated into the modern Flagler Trail running through the forest today.

The Florida National Scenic Trail passes through the forest, connecting local communities while providing chances for nature observation and outdoor education programs.

The forest is accessible through three main entry points at Barr Street, Snow Hill, and Jones East where visitors can park and begin their activities. Bring appropriate footwear and water since trails wind through natural terrain with varying conditions.

The forest contains a network of single-track mountain bike trails and walking paths winding through the natural terrain and offering varied challenges for riders of different skills. These trail systems allow multiple recreational activities across a relatively compact area.
