 Great Entry in the 60 Hikes series September 5, 2004
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this book before a trip to Tampa, and easily found the trailheads on 4 hikes with the directions in the book, in spite of the fact that I knew little about the surrounding area. I was familiar with the series thanks to the Raliegh, North Carolina book, which I also enjoyed.
Each trail includes a brief recap of the trail, detailed driving instructions and two to three pages of text with maps. Some of the trails have photos, too. The text is well written, and the trail description really helps me - I like to have an idea what the trail is like and the changes in store during the hike.
 Good info, but use with supplements September 6, 2003

This book has great information about hikes around Tampa- for each trail, it tells you obvious info, like the length, the difficulty, trail surface etc., but also other things that are good to know, like how popular the trail is and how shaded it is. There's a great deal of variety in the types of trails in the book- hiking and biking, long and short, etc. When I tried to hike my first trail from this book, though, the directions to the trail head were horrible. It would literally have been impossible for me to find the trail using the driving directions in this book- they directed me to a completely different location. Once I was on the trail, I felt like the book's information about the trail was also somewhat incomplete. So- by all means, use this book to get ideas about where to go for hikes. But make sure you check some other sources for directions and grab a trail map.
