In addition to miles of sand fringed with beach grass and cooled by salt breezes, Cumberland Island National Seashore is the spot to star-gaze, hike meandering trails, bird-watch and catch cultural sights, all within easy reach of the Landmark Historic District of Jekyll Island, to the north.
This trail offers a serene walk through dense patches of
rhododendron, mountain laurel, hemlock, and ferns. Hikers
will travel up and over Hickory Nut Ridge and through
hardwood stands and will cross several small mountain
brooks and springs. The trail ends at Unicoi State Park
campground.
