Thankful for the days well spent at Gold Head Branch State Park. We hiked and biked and explored our big backyard all weekend. 
Can’t remember the last time I explored a ravine. Beautiful little brook carving its way out of the Florida sand and scrub pine.
Fitbit says I climbed 14 floors! Who knew there were hills in Florida!
You never know what you’ll find out there 🤣 Happy trails…
Gold Head Branch campground is a big park with excellent sites for both tent camping and RVs.
There is also plenty to see and do. We hiked and biked and explored our big backyard all weekend.

We recently decided to take a trip to the Anza Borrego Desert while we were out in California.
We decided to step out a few times a week and go on some day hikes instead of just around the block on our daily walks.
This past sunny Saturday morning, Penny and I took a look around the trails at the Savannas Preserve State Park on Walton Road in Port Saint Lucie.
You can pick up a map at the entrance and get an overview of the trails at the park. It’s also a good idea to familiarize yourself with the markings for the trails you choose to follow.
Savannas are an endangered natural system of freshwater marshes. This preserve is the largest and most intact remnant of Florida east coast savannas. The park stretches 10 miles from Fort Pierce to Jensen and hosts 8 miles of trails and is open from 8 a.m. to sundown.
Guided walks as well as canoe and kayak tours are available on weekends with reservations required. The park also hosts an environmental center, but I didn’t think I could bring Penny inside for a tour. ; )
You can find more detailed information about navigating the Savannas Preserve online at Florida Hikes. Happy hiking!
