The Big Pine Braille Trail

The Big Pine Braille Trail is located in the Marshall Forest, one of
​The Nature Conservancy's few public preserves in the state of Georgia.
The trail got its name from a gigantic Short-leaf Pine found along the trail.

Very Interactive

In addition to discussing trees, forests, and wildlife, the Braille signs indicate many possible sensory experiences, including walking in the crunchy leaves at the bottom of a shallow streambed and feeling soft mosses at the bases of trees.
