Kings Park

Great place to walk, lots of pondering spots, benches along trail facing inspiring views
It's baffling to me how many parks there are in this county that are known to so few.

Very peaceful place to ride a bike, take a walk and recharge your mind or relax 😊

We stopped by Kings Park after reading about its biking / walking trails, on line. Kings Park is a 240-acre community / river park located on Merritt Island and is primarily a wetland preserve and a great place for a hike or ride and viewing nature. The park was fairly secluded and had a large parking area and restroom. We road the Island Pioneer Trail which is an easy 2.7-mile out-and-back paved trail, which took us about a half hour, with plenty of stops to take photos. We did not encounter many other people while exploring. The trail winds through the hammocks and between two small lakes. We saw numerous birds and even an alligator.

Road this trail again. One of our favorite short, nature, bike trails in the area. It appears they cut some of the scrub away, in areas, and it makes viewing of the surrounding waterways more visible. The park is accessible from both Chase Hammock Road on the North and Hall Road on the South, with plenty of parking and rest rooms at each end.

A very nice spot to hike and ride bicycles. There's quite a bit of wild life and beautiful plants and senic rest stops. Trail is pretty long and there are signs that tell you where to go after you walk across the board walk along the water .

I give this a 5 star rating because if how peaceful and beautiful the park is. There is a lot of parking and bathrooms. The lake view is very nice and relaxing. There is a 1.1 mil paved trail which is linked to the park with another nice trail. The park also has two active geocaches.
