Arch Creek East Environmental Preserve (ACE Preserve)

6.4Locals Score / 10

#10 of 19 Parks & Outdoors in Miami

Known fornature trailBiscayne Baydog friendlybiking
Directions

A quiet nature preserve tucked behind FIU that connects to the Biscayne Bay Nature Trail, with a limestone-history backstory — this was once a Tequesta Indian settlement, and the trail follows the path of a natural bridge that collapsed in 1973. Come for a peaceful walk, bike ride, or dog outing along a trail that opens out near the marina. Real caveat: no restrooms or picnic tables, so don't plan a long hang — it's a trail, not a park.
