Lose Yourself on Egan’s Creek Greenway

Flowers Abound on Greenway

 

I felt like a first grader on a nature walk!  Venture out to Egan’s Creek Greenway on Amelia Island and you are sure to get lost in your surroundings. . . in a good way!  Around every bend you are in for surprises.  From native fauna to local birds and wildlife, this natural  setting with its grassy trails is a designated stop on the Great Florida  Birding Trail.

Rangers have developed and marked two trails, a red trail and a blue trail.  Maps are available to help guide your walk or bike ride.  Depending on the season, visitors can see a variety of birds and wildlife within the 300-plus protected acres.
