-Fox Passage
-Palmetto Trail
Rated: Very Strenuous, if biking entire distance
48 miles, one-way
Bike the longest section of the cross-state Palmetto
Trail. This passage begins at HWY-52 in Bonneau
and ends at HWY-17 near Awendaw. Nearly 40
miles of the Swamp Fox passage is located in
Berkeley County! You'll pass through a variety of
ecosystems in the Francis Marion National Forest,
including bottomland/swamp habitats, long-leaf
pine forests, and tall grass savannas. If you're
quiet in the morning, you're almost guaranteed to
see white tailed deer. Barred owls can be heard
-throughout the forest year round.
