Redoubt Trail Loop
Trail through the historic Blakeley State Park
Description:
To reach the beginning of the loop, hikers must walk 0.1 mile on Benjamin Trail to reach Randall Trail, then continue on Randall Trail for a short time to reach Redoubt Trail Loop, about 0.5 mile into the hike.
The trail follows a small ridge past entrenchments, foxholes, and redoubts used in what is called "the last major battle of the Civil War". Wilkins Hall Pond, located about a mile and a half into the hike, is a good place to find pelicans and turtles, and sometimes even alligators.
Congress has designated the area as a "Class A Civil War Site", and it is part of the National Civil War Trail List.
