Elinor Klapp-Phipps Park - Tallahassee (FL)

5 /5 Tomas Vivas: Very glad I kept driving past all the park entrances to find Gate B. Well maintained trail that had a large number of branches making it very repeatable for future trips. Absolutely loved the tranquility and diversity here. Was pleasantly surprised with the bat house, awesome mixing of park and biodiversity maintinence

5 /5 Kevin Malfa: This is a great place to be outdoors year round. Hiking, running, biking, birdwatching, photography and horse riding are some of the things you can do here. There are a lot of single track and multi use paths going all over the place. This is near Warner Soccer Complex, Forest Meadows, Maclay trails and the Meridian Park baseball fields. Red Hills Horse Trials are held here.

5 /5 Ragan Jones: Beautiful park! There are lots of trails to walk or ride, and they cross each other in quite a few places, making the distance of each hike completely customizable (2 mile hike fitting for young kids energy level, day hike with a picnic lunch, or even just open green space to play or fly a kite in). There are multiple trail heads. Some trails are wide for horses, some have banked curves and are designed for mountain bikes, and others best suited to walking with narrow bridges over low spots. Each trailhead Ive visited has had printed maps available at the trailhead sign and map. Trails are of varying levels of difficulty and incline, and the maps give information about each loop of the trail in regards to accessibility. Some trailheads have restrooms or Porta potties. This particular trailhead didnt have either. The City of Tallahassee and Leon County maintain some excellent trails! Info and maps (for trails that have maps) can be found online on the citys website.

5 /5 Jtally: Very great spot for migratory birding in the Fall! Get ready to see many warbler species: Chestnut-sided, Worm-eating, American redstart, Blue and Golden-winged, Cerulean, Hooded, Ovenbird, Black&White, Orange-crowned, Kentucky, Tennessee, Common yellowthroat, Northern parula, Magnolia, Bay-breasted, Yellow-throated, Prairie, Black-throated Green, Louisiana and Northern waterthrush. Many great thrush species: Swainsons, Gray-cheeked, Veery, Wood, and Hermit late in the season. Along the shore of Lake Jackson you will see many wintering duck/shorebird species as well. During the Spring/Summer you have nesting Eastern Kingbirds, Great-crested flycatchers, Indigo buntings and Blue grosbeaks.

5 /5 Alexander Niedrach: Excellent park, secret waterfall, alot to explore for a scenic weekend hike, or a well trodden trail for a quick weekday hike to shake the dust off
