When the weather is cool in Florida, it becomes the perfect time to take a hike. Literally. Hiking in Florida isn’t quite like hiking in other states, simply because there are very few mountains and changes in elevation. But this doesn’t mean that the views aren’t as majestic. There is a boardwalk hiking trail in Homestead that leads to some pretty spectacular views of the Everglades. The next time you’re ready for some time outdoors, check out the Anhinga Boardwalk Trail in Florida.

The Anhinga Trail in the Everglades clocks in at less than a mile roundtrip and is a self-guided boardwalk hike for all skill levels.
