This route winds through undisturbed maritime forest with frequent views over the marsh and coastline, and you may spot deer, tortoises, or armadillos. It also gives views of the Guana and Tolomato rivers and the Atlantic, with chances to see lizards, squirrels, crabs, and deer. The loop crosses coastal habitats including maritime forest, pine flatwoods, and open savanna, often following the marsh and the Tolomato River. The Purple Trail offers a pleasant shaded stretch. Expect mostly flat, firm sand, though some parts are softer or rooty. A parking fee applies at Guana River State Park, dogs are allowed on a leash, and restrooms are at both ends. It is a moderate 12.4-kilometer run.
