If you love walking the trails, playing sports, kayaking, fishing,
hunting, camping, golfing, disc golfing and just about anything else
you can think of that involves the outdoors, then Tallahassee is
definitely the place to be!  Tallahassee has an amazing 61 parks
within the city that is managed by the city.  There is something for
everyone when it comes to parks and recreation in Tallahassee.

One of Tallahassee’s most recognized parks is Alfred B. Maclay Gardens
State Park.  The beautiful ornamental gardens are located on a portion
of the park’s 1,076 upland acres. The gardens were first planted in
1923 by Alfred B. and Louise Maclay after purchasing the property for
their winter home. A masterpiece of floral architecture, the gardens
feature a picturesque brick walkway, a secret garden, a reflection
pool, a walled garden and hundreds of azalea and camellia plants. Lake
Hall offers swimming and fishing, along with non-motorized boating for
canoers and kayakers. Pavilions and grills along the shore provide a
perfect setting for picnicking. Two short nature trails through the
woods overlooking the lake will enthrall walking enthusiasts, while
hikers, bicyclists and equestrians can enjoy five miles of multi-use
trails surrounding Lake Overstreet which adjoins the gardens.

Another well known Tallahassee park with lots of unique Tallahassee
history is Lake Jackson Mounds Archaeological State Park.  More than
eight centuries ago, Native Americans inhabited the area around Lake
Jackson, just north of Tallahassee. The park site was part of what is
now known as the Southeastern Ceremonial Complex. Today, it
encompasses six earthen temple mounds and one possible burial mound.
The largest mound is 278 feet by 312 feet at the base and
approximately 36 feet in height. Artifacts of pre-Columbian societies
have been found here including copper breastplates, necklaces,
bracelets, anklets, and cloaks. Visitors can enjoy a short hike past
the remains of an 1800s grist mill or picnic on an open grassy area
near the largest mound. Guided tours and interpretive programs of the
Tallahassee park are available upon request.

Another beautiful Tallahassee park with lots of enjoyable Tallahassee
fishing is Lake Talquin State Park.  In 1927 the Jackson Bluff Dam was
constructed on the Ochlockonee River to produce hydroelectric power.
The waters held back by the dam formed Lake Talquin, which now offers
outstanding recreational opportunities. Catch largemouth bass, bream,
shellcracker, and speckled perch. Visitors can enjoy nature walks,
picnicking, boating, and canoeing. Nature lovers will enjoy the
rolling hills and deep ravines with forests of pines and hardwoods
where they may spy wild turkeys, bald eagles, ospreys, and deer. To
reserve the picnic pavilion for a special gathering, please call at
least two weeks in advance. The pavilion is reserved on a
first-come-first-served basis.
