THE DIGEST
Top 5 Trails in Savannah for a Relaxing Fall Walk

It might still feel like summer in Savannah, but cooler days are (slowly) on the way. Luckily, many of our best trails are shaded, making them worth exploring even before the real fall weather shows up. From coastal views to forested paths, these spots offer a peaceful escape into nature. Just keep in mind: some trails are affected by high tides, so it’s always smart to check conditions before heading out.
