Want to start trailing? To get started, download the Visit Jax App to plan your experience along the Jax Ale Trail, Jax Coffee and Donuts Trail, Mayport Shrimp Trail, nature trails and Black Heritage Trail.
We recommend you create an account on the Visit Jax app BEFORE you start checking in on any of the trails. By doing this, the check-ins will save to your account. If you do not have an account and already checked in to places, you should not create an account as doing so may wipe out the existing check ins.

Get your Brewery Passport stamped at each local brewery you visit and receive FREE Jax Ale Trail beer gear. Not able to grab a physical passport? No worries! Download the Visit Jax App to access our digital Ale Trail Passport. Any great trail mix has a wide variety of nuts and here in Jacksonville, we are home to dozens of incredible local breweries. From Wicked Barley to Disco Witch, it is hoppin’ on the Ale Trail!
Every trail mix must have something sweet and that’s where the Jax Coffee & Donuts Trail comes in.

Let’s add a little history to the mix. Discover the brave, innovative legends that made Jacksonville what it is today by visiting stops on the Black Heritage Trail. From the mind of Zora Neale Hurston to the musical talents of James Weldon and John Rosamond Johnson, this self-guided experience allows you to explore locations and points of interest at your own pace. Make sure to stop at some black-owned restaurants along the way!
Along with an assortment of nuts, you may also find several types of seeds in your trail mix, which we consider our hiking and biking
trails. With over 80,000 acres of parklands in Jax, you will find trails that suit any level.
