The Champion Tree Trail in Jasper, FL, once one of my favorite hikes is the marked trailhead for the Holton Creek Conservation Area Trail, a 14.5-mile hiking, biking, and camping trail known for its large cypress trees and wildlife, located at 7092 County Road 249, off of the Florida tail. After being hit by several back to back hurricanes it now serves as a reminder that life is short, and tomorrow is never promised. It used to offer one of Floridas most beautiful kayak-hike to Camp experiences. A experience that set silently on my bucket list for years after hiking it for my first time many years ago. The beauty that was once there is now gone but was replaced by something new, a growing beauty.
Never again will I put off doing something, because no one else wants to go. If it’s important to me, it’s important to me.
This is still a wonderful hike and if you’re ever in the area I would encourage you too go.

Holton Creek Conservation Area, near Jasper, FL (7092 County Road 249)
Trail Name: Officially part of the Holton Creek Conservation Area Trail system, but the trailhead is marked “Champion Tree Trailhead”.
Length: 14.5 miles (can take 4.5-5 hours). You do not half to hike the entire trail, also if you’re new to hiking, this is probably not the trail to do by yourself as many of the trees are down. It might be harder to navigate.
Highlights: Home to one of Florida’s largest cypress trees and abundant wildlife. it was the biggest cypress in Florida before the hurricane marked havoc on its path.
