Join the Jacksonville Chapter for a walk in the Theodore Roosevelt Area, Timucuan Ecological & Historical Preserve. This is a gem of a place with exceptional wildlife and a beautiful trail.
The Theodore Roosevelt Area is a 600-acre natural treasure of hardwood forest, wetlands, and scrub vegetation. It is also rich in cultural history. We will hike an easy 6 to 8 miles. We will experience miles of thickly wooded peaceful nature trails, vast grassland that supports both water and land animals, ancient piles of discarded oyster shells which yield clues about an extinct culture, and the legacy of preservation.
