Cape Haze Pioneer Trail
This trail, opened in 1999, is built along a segment of the former Charlotte Harbor and Northern Railroad. One of the primary uses of this former rail line was transport of phosphate from Florida’s inland mining district to deep-water ships at Boca Grande. Today, the corridor provides an enjoyable experience for trail goers of any age. The future plan is to extend the trail south to the Town of Placida.
