A Little Relief in Charleston During the Holidays

So, we all know of our favorite neighborhoods to walk around, whether it's around Hampton Park downtown or the county park on James Island or around the old Navy Base in North Charleston or even on the beaches at Folly or Sullivan's. But, if you need a little variety from your normal routine, read below.

I discovered this little known trail less than a year ago. I had forgotten about it until recently, and it is great to take the pups on, walk with your significant other, or just escape from everyday life for a half hour of solitude. It's located on Patriot's Point and starts just beyond the golf course near the Shell Station. It's probably two miles round trip. There is another access point further down into Patriot's Point, but walking the whole trail is very rewarding, especially when you make it to one of the most stellar views in Charleston (see above, courtesy of my phone). From the end point, you can see the entire harbor from downtown Charleston to the Isle of Palms. Look out for both lighthouses, and you know you've made it.

If you need an escape, be sure to check it out! It's a great way to unwind during stressful times, especially throughout the holiday seasons.
