There are many places to go in Florida where you can enjoy nature and fresh air, relaxation and exercise.

Whether your desire is running, hiking, strolling, sitting, gazing, fishing, kite flying or picnicking your choices are abundant.

The state boasts 161 parks spanning 700,000 acres and 100 miles of sandy white beach. Florida's 67 county's residents enjoy numerous parks, as well individual city kept parks, so many that to visit them all would be a full time occupation. Florida is rich in history, including several Indian tribes and evidence of people dating back 12,000 years, European settlements date back to 1492, with pirate invasions, later on ther was building and investment by railroad tycoons, farming settlers, resort and vacation attractions to mention a few.
