Beautiful park. Well maintained and marked trails. Be sure to check out the covered bridge and boardwalk for great views.

Nice trails to walk, plus big open grassy spaces for other activities. On the weekends there a lot of people. So this isn't the place to commune with nature. The other people we saw were acting more like it was a city street than a trail, avoiding eye contact and not acknowledging a "hello"

We went to J. R. Alford Greenway for a morning stroll with our baby. We took the Lafayette Heritage Trail Park path and it was an extremely enjoyable excursion! The path was wide and easily manageable with our stroller and there were a few rough and bumpy parts, but not many. We enjoyed our stroll through the exotic natural beauty of Florida with large moss-covered oak tree canopies, birds and wildlife nearby, and wonderful views of the wilderness. We went early in the morning in order to be done before the heat index got unbearable and we thoroughly enjoyed it. There were benches every so often along the path if you need to rest, water stations (for pets too), and my personal favorite part was going up and over the 30 foot tall boardwalk/pedestrian bridge that crosses over top of a railroad track and leads into beautiful view of the oak canopies and waterways. We will definitely return for more adventures in the future!

Great location with great views. Super excited to have brought this 2025 Ford Bronco Sport Outer Banks out there for an awesome photoshoot. JRideReviews and Tallahassee Ford are grateful.

Favorite trail in Tallahassee! You don’t have to head far in to feel like you’re in untouched wilderness. Plenty of options for biking, hiking, or riding horseback. Dog friendly for sure, bring your dog there is even a fountain for dogs there. Heading right when you enter blends seamlessly into Tom brown park through a gorgeous land bridge across 2 lakes and If you go straight there are miles of trails where you can see wild deer, turkey, fox and maybe even a swamp ape👣 😂 enjoy!
