Top 5 Trails for a Relaxing Fall Walk in Savannah
November is here, and there’s no better time to explore some of Savannah’s most scenic trails. From coastal views to forested paths, these spots offer a relaxing escape into nature. Just keep in mind: some trails are affected by high tides and recent storms, so it’s a good idea to check conditions before heading out.
5. Whitmarsh Island Preserve Trail
Whitmarsh Island Preserve is an easy-going 2.4-mile loop perfect for a quiet walk or a quick bike ride. The trail twists through forest and marshland, with hard-packed dirt trails that are great for mountain biking too. With options to choose between paved or natural paths, this spot offers flexibility for anyone looking for a leisurely stroll. It’s also almost entirely shaded, making it comfortable even on warmer days.
Fee: Free
4. Priest’s Landing Trail
The Priest’s Landing Trail winds through forests and marshes, taking you past a marsh pond where you might spot a variety of birds. The path follows the marsh border, crosses bridges, and winds through coastal woodland, offering great views along the way. It’s flat and easy, making it a fun option for a casual afternoon hike.
Fee: Free
