East Central Regional Rail Trail

Brevard County Parks and Recreation maintains a total of 11 miles of trail along the larger Florida Coast to Coast Trail, which is expected to span 250 miles upon its completion. Brevard County’s portion, known as the East Central Regional Rail Trail, is a 12-foot wide, multi-use trail which begins at La Grange Road in Titusville and ends at the Volusia County line. Parking is available at the Aurantia Road Trailhead at the intersection of Aurantia Road and Railroad Street in Mims.

The versatile trail serves as an equestrian, bicycle, and walking trail. For more information or maps of the Florida Coast to Coast Trail’s entirety, please visit the Florida Department of Environmental Protection’s website .
