Confirmed from Lake Wales Ridge Wildlife and Environmental Area - Henscratch's own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.
Wildlife park featuring a public restroom.
What runners say about Lake Wales Ridge Wildlife and Environmental Area - Henscratch
Truly is old florida at its finest. Untouched un tamed beauty worth a stroll through for trail lovers alike
This is the Henscratch 27 Tract of the Lake Wales Ridge Wildlife and Environmental Area. The walk-in entrance is right off Highway 27. The Tract is a beautiful example of the Ridge's scrub with many rare plants and a wonderful rosemary forest.
Nice relaxing trek through the Florida scrub country. Nice little boardwalk and plenty of wildlife
