TRIP TIPS
OFF THE BEATEN PATH & BEACH: HIDDEN OUTDOOR GEMS
When nature calls there are lots of scenic trails for hiking
and biking from wooded areas beachside to bayside rides.
Moccasin Lake Nature Park is ideal for a gentle nature
adventure, and to take it up a notch I suggest Caladesi Island
State Park located at the north point of Clearwater. Biking is
a way of life here, and we have the trails to prove it, with the
newest edition in Clearwater being the Courtney Campbell
Trail. This trail is over 10-miles long traveling along the edge
of Tampa Bay, you are sure to experience wildlife on your
ride. Getting active outdoors is easy. Deciding where to go in
Clearwater with so many options is the only hard part.
