Tallahassee-St. Marks Historic Railroad Trail State Park

The 16-mile paved pathway runs from Tallahassee through pine forests and oak groves to the coastal community of St. Marks.

The railroad corridor established in 1830s transported cotton from inland plantations to coastal ships bound for textile mills across the Atlantic.

The trail connects multiple communities while preserving the heritage of Florida's first and longest-operating railroad line for public recreation.

Visitors find parking areas, water stations, and restroom facilities at the Capital Circle Trailhead, Woodville Sports Complex, and Wakulla Station.

The pathway serves as part of the Florida National Scenic Trail system and includes a parallel unpaved track for horseback riding.
