The East Coast Greenway is a developing trail
system, spanning nearly 3,000 miles as it winds its
way between Canada and Key West, FL, linking all the
major cities of the eastern seaboard.
Florida boasts the longest
portion of Greenway with the most miles of completed
trail. North to south, the Greenway enters the state
at Fernandina Beach then continues 584 miles to Key
West, the United States' southernmost mainland
point. The Greenway travels largely along the coast,
through seaside villages, America's earliest
historic sites, through vast nature preserves, and
major cities that include Jacksonville and Miami.
The route includes 198 miles of completed
traffic-free paths and the most bridges of any ECG
state.
Much of the Greenway through Florida is on wide
sidepath that runs along Highway A1A. It concludes
with the Florida Keys Overseas Heritage Trail, which
hops from island to island for 106 miles.
