Econ River Wilderness Area parking

Little hidden gem. Nice and relaxing once you pass the road and can no longer hear the cars driving by. According to our GPS it was a 3 mile hike from start to finish if you stayed on the red trail, however there were shorter routes for those of you who might not want a long hike. Went on a Monday afternoon not many people around. The ground was pretty dry except for two area which were easy enough to get around. If your looking for something to do this might be just the right thing. It’s free and relaxing. Unfortunately we did not get to see many animals except for a few birds. Maybe next time. Will definitely be back.

I absolutely love the hiking out here. Beautiful area next to the st johns river!

Awesome trails for those wanting to get away from the business of the city and enjoy some natural peace and serenity. Enjoyed the entire 1hr 45 min trail walk!

This place was extremely beautiful. Although there are cut trails, I'd advise no wheelchairs due to the mud on some paths. Dogs are welcome! Don't forget water and a little bag of snacks. Pack a Light backpack. Bring your camera and binoculars. My teens loved it. Great free thing to do. I had a great time, we seen a turtle and many birds. Lots of different animal tracks. Fun experience.

Super fun and fairly tame hiking and exploring area for the family. I’ve seen bikers, runners and people just wasting a little time going through the trails. Grab a map on the way in and off you go. Oh and try to make it to the river! You be happy that you did.
