Falling Waters State Park initially felt a bit small when we arrived, but as we continued to…read moreexplore, we quickly realized it was much larger than we first assumed. Our first stop, of course, was the sinkholes and waterfall. While the waterfall itself felt a little underwhelming considering it's described as the highest waterfall in the state, the experience was still quite serene. Hearing the water drop, feeling the cool breeze from the running water, and simply pausing to take it all in made the stop worthwhile. We were a bit disappointed to find that parts of the trail system were closed off, which limited some of our planned exploration. That said, we kept walking and were able to find other trails to enjoy. We ended up wandering around for about two hours, though we know we didn't get to see everything the park has to offer. One of my favorite unexpected features was the dedicated bat habitat area, which was both interesting and unique. Overall, it's a peaceful park with more to discover than meets the eye, and a nice place to spend a couple of hours exploring nature.

Decent parking and lots of open space. We went when it was cold but it was beautiful and quiet…read more There are sinkholes campsites and clean restrooms and it's not to pricey to go for the day. 5$ for our truck :) not a ton of "hiking" per say but really fun nature trails to keep you busy. Nice little tucked away gem here in Florida .

My husband Roger and I did this last Monday for our 24th wedding anniversary and it was amazing!…read moreOur tour guide Nick was both informative and amusing with his anecdotes and jokes. We're both considered heavy/overweight by our doctors but this was a moderate exercise for us and since it's cool in the caves (65 degrees), then it was simply something fun to do while looking at the beautify of the stalagmites and stalactites around us. The tour was time "just right", not too long and not too short. I'd highly recommend it to anyone wanting an inexpensive trip to our Florida State Parks (the tour had a nominal feel). It can't be done after a hurricane though because the caves flood and it takes them a LONG time to pump out all the water (I think that Nick told us up to a year), so do it NOW when the weather is right. A+

Florida Caverns State Park is located in Marianna, FL, 68 miles northwest of Tallahassee. It's $5…read moreper vehicle entry into the park and then it's $16 for a guided underground cave tour. Tours last around 45 minutes and they run throughout the day from 9am - 4pm Central Standard Time. A limited number of cave tour reservations can be made online ahead of time at floridacaverns.com. This cave tour is pretty straightforward. You enter 65 feet below the surface into 8 illuminated rooms learning insights into limestone formations, mineral deposits, rock columns and fossilized shells. A lot of the rooms are colorful exhibiting a sort of glow in the dark appearance. The tour guide gives background and history into what makes the caverns unique and how they came into existence. Once the cave tour is completed, a great way to continue your visit is by driving 2 miles down the road (within park limits) to check out Blue Hole Spring. This has to be one of the least talked about springs I discovered in all of Florida. An absolute hidden gem, the Blue Hole is a tucked away swimming treasure that lights up turquoise blue colors when the sun is shining. Refreshing off in these waters was the best part about the park visit and quickly put my cave tour experience in the rear view mirror. The waters of Blue Hole Spring are incredibly translucent even while continuing the 2-mile flow through the woods and connecting with the Chipola River. Some extras at the park are...overnight camping for $20, hiking trails, picnic pavilions and launching canoes and kayaks. Overall, Florida Caverns State Park can be a worthwhile stop when visiting Marianna, Florida, with a combination of cave exploring, swimming at Blue Hole Spring and spending time in nature.

It is Well fenced and has a very nice walking trail that is probably close to a third of a mile. It has a very nice shade/shelter structure as well as multiple benches all along the trail. It has some very unique additions that are bridges over what I am sure must be the wet area During certain seasons. There is also a brick bridge over a little lake with a Bridge Crossing old-time structure on it. The park has plenty of old growth trees and shade as well as an incredible amount of open area for your dog to run as well as a few little Hills tucked in every here and there. The entire park actually feels like something you would read about in a nursery rhyme book. The entryway alone will put you into a different mindset and the amount of donation bricks was unbelievable

Plus there's shaded areas and pavilions so you can sit back and relax and watch your dogs play. This park is absolutely gorgeous. I'm so glad I stopped here on our way through.

With the birds chirping their morning song and the serene ambiance of walking this paved path amongst the trees, it was easy to displace the reality of being in a decent sized city for a bit. In addition to the walking trail, there is also a children's playground, a pavilion, a few picnic tables, a fitness area, and a decent sized parking lot. I would definitely recommend this pleasant walking trail and with it lit with street lights every few yards, I believe that it is open until ten o'clock at night. Go check it out for yourself, I am confident that you will not be disappointed. Overall, I will give it five stars. It is not a huge area, but Dothan Kiwanis Park and Trail proves that good things can come in small packages.

This trail system is all intertwined with each other so you get miles and miles of trails. There are parts that are for bicycles and other parts that are just for hiking. You can bring your dogs if they are leashed. They have a couple of trash bins and plastic poo bags on the trail. The trail is marked with milage markers. At the main parking lot there is a small pavilion with picnic tables and a small but intriguing playground. When I was there a few families were playing. This part is definitely worth a visit. Plenty of parking. Get outside!
