The Francis Marion National Forest is located north of Charleston, South Carolina. It is named for Revolutionary War hero Francis Marion, who was known to the British as the Swamp Fox. It lies entirely within the Middle Atlantic coastal forests ecoregion. The park is also entirely in the Subtropical coniferous forest. This trail is one of the main routes off Highway 17 into Francis Marion National Forest. This trail is part of a multitude of interconnecting trails through the National Forest. This route leads into the Little Wambaw Swamp Wilderness and provides ample opportunities for wildlife watching. At the end of the route are deep ruts before the lookout into the swamp.
