The 1.2-mile Sylva
Tree Walk is home to 44 of the more than 50 species in Sylva,

Club currently maintains the walk, which features a guide book,
map and small signs at the base of each tree indicating its common
name. The walk officially begins in the shade of Bicentennial Park
near the old courthouse, but folks are welcome to pick a parking
place and start at any point along the trail. Jackson County
Visitors Center on West Main St. (800) 962-1911. |
