Discover Davie: Nature, History, and Trails

Davie combines trails through distinctive landscapes with history and opportunities for active exploration. The Linear Park Trail runs eight miles from east to west along the north shore of the South New River Canal. There is also a network of horseback riding and recreational trails, with paved paths for walking, cycling, and rollerblading, as well as unpaved trails for horseback riders and hikers. This allows you to plan your days according to your interests: with a longer route, a loop on paved paths, or an excursion on horseback.

Nature Experiences Between Wetlands and Pastureland

Tree Tops Park in Davie extends across a restored freshwater wetland. Nature trails and opportunities for wildlife observation make it a destination for anyone who wants to experience the landscape rather than simply pass through it. For families in particular, it can be exciting to focus on plants, bodies of water, and animals, and to consciously plan a slower-paced visit.

A different landscape awaits you at Robbins Lodge & Preserve. The area encompasses 160 acres of pastureland and horseback riding trails. Those who want to combine open spaces and time outdoors with horseback riding opportunities can consider this location when planning their trip. Westridge Park adds trails for hiking, cycling, and horseback riding to the selection. Several archaeological sites also give the park a historical dimension.

Historical and Cultural Discoveries

The Old Davie School Museum & Event Venue is located in Broward County’s oldest surviving school building, at its original location. The building has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1988. Self-guided tours are available at the museum, depending on availability. This makes it possible to add insight into local history to a trip to Davie without making the entire day exclusively about activities in nature.

Easter Hill is also one of the places where culture and community life can be seen. Today, Easter Hill includes a wedding pavilion and Sunday concerts in the park. For your trip planning, this can be an interesting point of reference if you would like to include a cultural visit in addition to trails and landscapes.

Learning Together at Long Key Natural Area and Nature Center

At Long Key Natural Area and Nature Center, children and adults can learn about archaeology, the history of Native Americans, and ecology. This provides another way to connect a stay in Davie with specific topics. Especially when different age groups are traveling together, a place of learning like this offers a different experience from a simple walk or a sporty trail.
