Since my PO Box is in Micanopy, I drive through there frequently. I was surprised to see a brand-new trailhead, not yet opened, on the main road between downtown and US 441 south, for the “Micanopy Native American Heritage Preserve.” A grant was provided by the state in 2005 to build an interpretive trail and museum at this site, which I believe will commemorate the settlement so well documented by William Bartram in his Travels, published in 1791. I can’t find any mention online of when the park and trail will open, but I’ll do a little asking around and find out!
