A NOTE FROM THE MANAGER

Pat Wells

The self-guided nature walk through our tropical hardwood forest is one of Key Largo’s “best-kept secrets.” Along the main trail is a native plant butterfly garden and a picnic table (please pack out your trash). Spring means a few mosquitoes may be present, but coming prepared with insect repellent should suffice. Towards the wetter summer season, long sleeves and pants are recommended.

The Port Bougainville Trail extension lengthens your walk by one or two miles on the loop trail. Use of this trail no longer requires a backcountry permit, but visitors must stay on the designated path. Additional backcountry trails may be explored simply by completing a backcountry permit at the John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park Ranger Station.
