MILE 1 – You’ll see the first milepost just before you get to Van R. Plus there are bathrooms, drinking fountains, and a camp store here for any pit stops you need to make. A set of bike/walking trails in the park will take you back to the beautiful, unspoiled beaches, or you can wind through the old-growth coastal forests and three dune lakes that make this state park a coastal jewel. It costs two dollars for a bike rider to enter, but if you’ve got the time and energy, it’s definitely worth the side trip. There’s a gas station, mini-mart and a Subway here in case you need some supplies or snacks for your bike ride.Īlmost immediately, you’ll see the entrance to Topsail Hill Preserve State Park on your right.
MILE 0 – The trail begins on the west side of Highway 30A where it separates from US Highway 98 in Dune Allen. Be sure to take sunscreen, sunglasses, a bottle of water, and a camera. Here’s a mile-by-mile guide to the trail, going from west to east. After one ride along the Timpoochee, your bike may become the preferred mode of transportation at the beach. You can rent bikes by the day, but if you’re staying somewhere along 30A you might want to rent them for the entire week. Rental bikes are available from several shops along the length of the trail. The trail parallels the entire length of Scenic Highway 30A from Dune Allen to Inlet Beach and is safe, wide, and relatively flat. It’s a perfect day trip for the family, an ideal way to get some exercise, and a whole lot of fun. The approximately 18.5-mile trail, named after an influential Euchee Indian Chief, winds past dune lakes and state parks and beach access points through several charming beach neighborhoods. There’s no better way to get “up close and personal” with South Walton than a bike ride along the Timpoochee Trail.
