Like all the trails in the Everglades Pa-hay-okee was very well done and quite educational. If you can take your time and stop along the way and listen and sense the relentless stillness and majesty of the area this is a good place to do it.
Short (0,25 mile), easy but really nice boardwalk, really worth to do, especially if you want to do more shorter walks.
This is only ten minutes drive from the Royal Palms Visitor Centre.A short walk that gives a great perspective of the flat Sawgrass area.Great outlook. Well worth the effort to check it out.
This is a quick trail. Took us about 5 minutes to walk through. You do see a great observation of the area.
This is a short boardwalk trail that can be traversed end to end in only several minutes. It provides a nice panorama over open country. My wife and I took our time on the trail, stopping to take pictures. It was a nice diversion from our drive down to Flamingo.
This is quite a short trail, no more than a 20 minute walk. There was not much wildlife to see but it does give you a good perspective of the Everglades and the way people existed in the difficult environment.
Boardwalk leads to "river of grass", which was nice to see. Otherwise, not much along the short 0.2 mile trail.
The whole park is lovely and intriguing. Unique ecosystem. And the topography screams accessibility, since there are so many boardwalks here. Plus Florida is so flat. At least here Stop at every opportunity! Would love to go back.
Of the walks/stops we did in the Everglades this is one I could have skipped. A bit interesting to see what everything looked like untouched but that was it...a bit. Tween children lost interest and wanted to stay in car for stops after this one.
Another distinct ecosystem in the Everglades yet in opposing contrast from the wacky weirdness of Mahogany Hammock’s jungle-like tropical plants, instead a wide open sea of sawgrass swayed and soothed in golden tones of honey, rust and chartreuse and extended as far as my eyes could see. On this easy boardwalk trail, time and place stood still. The sun hung lower in the sky and the birds became active again. Peace and tranquility mesmerized me, but I had to keep moving and get to the Anhinga Trail before sunset! As the ecosystem began to change again, one last glance at a snowy egret surveying its “river of grass” domain perched on a winter bare dwarf bald cypress with wispy rust leaves still clinging. And then a Tricolored Heron stopped me dead in my tracks, made me jump out of my car, snap its picture and kindle hope that future generations will get to appreciate this timeless, graceful habitat.
