While Florida might not be renowned for its hiking opportunities, there are still plenty of places where hikers can go and get in some quality trail-time. Heck, there are even hidden hiking trails in Florida just waiting to be discovered. But we have one particular place that will make for the perfect day off spent entirely outdoors. A little bit of trail, a little bit of wildlfe, and a whole lot of secluded beach action. Take a look.

Lovers Key State Park in Fort Meyers, Florida has over 5 miles of trails winding through sand, grass, and swampy marshland.

For many, many years this amazing state park was only accessible by boat.

Which means that the beaches were so isolated, lovers made the effort to seek it out for a little bit of privacy.

Today, while Lovers Key State Park is a bit more accessible to all, there is still that secluded feel to it, especially when you hit the beaches.

But while there are many different wonderful sights to see and wildlife to spot from the beaches...
