Confirmed from Pellicer Creek Conservation Area'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.
This 3,000-acre tract of land offers nature viewing, fishing, hiking, boating & primitive camping.
What runners say about Pellicer Creek Conservation Area
“A beautiful place to go for a nice walk and get out of your head and Back To Nature for a little while, everyone should be taking advantage of these places before they disappear.”
Pellicer Creek Corridor is a treasure and we'll worth the long hike. Walking the trail you experience sugar sand and dunes, high bluffs overlooking the "Creek", swampy lowlands, lakes, old planted pine fields (being slowly recaptured to native vegetation, stands of oak (new and old), palmetto scrub, and mixed forest.
I attended the "Walk Back in Time" event held on November 17th at the Florida Agricultural Museum. a tractor took us from the parking lot to a piece of the property close to the Pellicer Creek Corridor. Near the drop-off point they were putting together a miniature train and tracks.
Great paths for horses, beautiful along Pellicer Creek. Rode bikes, walked through sand.
A beautiful place to go for a nice walk and get out of your head and Back To Nature for a little while, everyone should be taking advantage of these places before they disappear. It is in everybody's interest to keep beautiful sanctuaries around and also is great for your mind and soul.
