Great Florida Birding Trail

The 2000 mile (3200 km)long Great Florida Birding Trail (GFBT) is a collection of more than 400 locations in the U.S. state of Florida. The sites were chosen to conserve and enhance the state's bird habitats through promotion of birdwatching, environmental education and ecotourism.

The trail is divided into four sections, each containing at least two 'gateway' sites:

Within each section, the sites are grouped into clusters. Usually the sites in a cluster are within an hour's drive of each other.

Many of the state's 480 species can be found along the Trail, including the Roseate Spoonbill, Limpkin, Swallow-tailed Kite, Red-cockaded Woodpecker and the endangered Florida Scrub Jay. Free Trail guides are available from the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission and on the GFBT website.
