We’ve traveled to Florida a lot in the past few months – including St. Petersburg, Miami, and St. Augustine. On a recent trip, we stopped in Tallahassee to see the Alfred Maclay Gardens State Park. The 1,100-acre park features over six miles of walking, biking, and horseback riding trails along two lakes, as well as a 28-acre historic garden teeming with over 60 varieties of azaleas and 150 cultivars of camellias.

The majority of the park and the trails are open year-round. However, park staff only open the Historic Gardens to the public from January through April.
