Description

Portions of this 4-mile trail follow the former Marianna and Blountstown Railroad, which served the area from 1909 to 1972. Connecting Pioneer Settlement with the Apalachicola River, the trail passes through the heart of the charming town of Blountstown, the seat of Calhoun County. A spur trail heads north at Franklin Street, following that street to parallel with CR 17; it ends where CR 17 intersects with 11th Street.

This trail is also a segment of the larger Florida National Scenic Trail system.
