Congaree Kingsnake Trail

King Snake Trail is a difficult hike in Congaree National Park. It's the longest trail in the park and takes hikers to areas seldom seen my most visitors. This trail may be a bit much for very young children. Dogs (on leash) are permitted on this trail. This trail has orange blazes. The park says "the King Snake Trail explores a remote part of Congaree. The trail offers excellent birdwatching, and hikers may spot deer, raccoons, opossums, and even bobcat tracks. Midway, the trail passes a large cypress-tupelo slough that seems to go on forever. On the other side of the trail, giant cherrybark oaks stand at near-record size." There is camping available in Congaree National Park.
