Wild Encounters and Winding Trails: A Day in Belmore State Forest
Belmore State Forest’s Ates Creek Tract is a hidden gem just 15 minutes west of Green Cove Springs. On a recent visit, I spotted deer, a bobcat, and a variety of birds—all within a short ride. The forest spans over 8,700 acres and features sandhills, flatwoods, and shaded trails perfect for hiking or biking.
