Coast
Trails
River Bluff Trail
Length: 1.5 mile loop
Type: Hiking Trail
Difficulty: Moderate
Description: Starting at the parking area, this 1.5-mile nature trail traverses several moderately steep slopes. You will cross a canal and then turn and follow the bluff overlooking the Edisto River. Cypress wading in dark water along the shore are just part of the scenic view of trees and wildlife. After you cross several footbridges, the trail widens and you will pass through a level wooded area and end at an open field. At this point you can return the way you came, or make a loop by following the main park road back to the parking area. You may enjoy the river view from other areas in the park or extend your hike on the Old Loop Trail, which begins on the opposite side of S-18-30.
