Day 1
Hike the Palmetto Trail: Peak to Pomaria Passage
If it’s a cool day in the region, take the little one(s) for a hike on the Peak to Pomeria trail. This segment of the Palmetto Trail is easier for older folks as well as children with a flat route for most of the 10-mile journey. Take in the views from the trail’s bridges where you can spot some birds, like owl herons and hawks, and maybe some turtles by the water. Pro tip: Park at one of the three trailheads.
Hours: 24/7
