Description

Pumpkin Hill Creek Preserve State Park protects coastal uplands and marsh habitats in North Jacksonville. Its trails offer a quieter outing for visitors interested in walking, off-road cycling, horseback riding or observing the landscape beyond the city’s developed areas.

🥾 Multiuse trails: The park has about five miles of trails through several natural communities; select a route using the official map.

🦉 Wildlife watching: Take your time around the habitats that provide refuge for birds and other wildlife.

🛶 Paddling access: A canoe and kayak launch is reached by a roughly 500-foot portage, so plan how you will carry your equipment.

🌾 Marsh surroundings: The preserve forms part of the wider network of natural areas around Pumpkin Hill and Cedar Point.

JaxBNB tip: Check current trail and launch conditions, download the park map and choose an outing that fits your equipment and available time.

Visit the official website for current details.
