Grove Trail
About This Trail
A 1/2 mile out-and-back trail that ends at a historic fruit grove of key lime and mango trees. Easy, mostly even terrain, partly shaded, good for birds and butterflies. If you’ve ever wondered where Key limes came from, there were once groves and orchards on the Florida Keys.The half mile Grove Trail at John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park leads from the mangroves along the picnic area adjoining the parking lot through a tropical hammock to one of the historic groves of Key Largo.
