Živilė JG/AllTrails Switching from the rows of trees to the open skies and wetlands is always a stunning transition.
Not only is this trail packed with beauty, but the history of this area is full of significance.
Allison Campbell/AllTrails The sugar refining process was hazardous, and the people forced to work in these conditions are a large part of the area’s history.
Interspersed in the oaks is information about the history in the area, which everyone should stop and read to properly take in the significance.
Mike Mcshan/AllTrails These beautiful oaks lining the path have seen all sorts of things in their years.
As always, make sure you never leave behind any trash or food peels in order to keep the ecosystem as natural as possible.
