Trail Overview

Raum, also known as Apalachicola National Forest Road 172, connects Larkin Trail at the north end and State Route 379 at the south end. It takes you through the southwest part of the Apalachicola National Forest along Kennedy Creek and gives you access to a few OHV trails. The road conditions are a mixture of packed sand, loose sand, some deep holes that can turn into 2-foot deep mud holes after rainy days, and a few permanent Mud Holes. The road is not always wide enough for two vehicles to pass. 4WD and high clearance are recommended. All vehicles must be street legal. Please be aware that the cellphone reception is weak. The Apalachicola National Forest is located in the eastern part of Florida's panhandle. It's home to some of the most unique animal and plant species in the world. Here, visitors can enjoy safe, family-friendly activities such as fishing, hunting, hiking, and trail-riding while surrounded by tranquil, diverse ecosystems.
