Flagler Quarry Trail 
(Approx. 948 feet long)

This "easy Walk" trail is an introductory walk through the tropical hardwood hammock and the Flagler Quarry fossil coral walls. Eventually this trail will provide wheelchair access.

 

Quarry Station Trail
(Same map as Flagler Trail)

(Approx. 525 feet long)

Branching out from the Flagler Quarry Trail is a tour of the Quarry Station area where the railroad siding brought fresh water to this area and then carried the quarried stone away.

 

Quarry Walls Walk
(Approx. 229 feet long)

An opportunity to stand inside a coral reef, now petrified after it died thousands of years ago ... the ancestor of our Florida keys living reef. Both north and south walls offer remarkable views of countless reef builders of the past and present.

Hammock Trail
(Approx. 2,682 feet long)

Contrasting communities are the focus of this trail... rare and endangered varieties of cactus and palms, a lofty tropical hammock, wetlands, and the transitional area connecting them.

Sunset Trail
(approximately 1,650 feet long)

High hammock, wetlands, a salt marsh, the 'mangrove ecotone' and a view of Florida Bay at the end of the trail are highlights.
