Hiking Wekiwa Springs (Optional Swimming)

Hit the trail with us for a potential scenic 5-mile hike along the Volksmarch Trail; with great company, of course! Depending on the group, we may not do the full loop and could opt for a shorter route (like 1 mile in and back).

We’ll explore nature at a comfortable pace, enjoy the views, and maybe stop for a snack or photo break. All experience levels are welcome; just bring water, comfy shoes, and your sense of adventure!

Optional: For those who want to cool off after the hike, there’s potential for a swim; so feel free to bring swimwear and a towel!

Please make sure to reserve and pay for your parking spot online for our upcoming hike.
