Florida Road Trip: Ten Trees

My family stopped in here for a quick family photo session and it was a really cool experience. This tree is absolutely enormous, pictures just do not do it justice at all. The tree is over 200 years old if I remember correctly and is massive at its base. Once you walk up under the branches that droop down to the ground, you are so engulfed in the tree that you feel like you are in a completely different park. This beautiful tree made for some really awesome family pictures and it was fun to learn about the history of the park and the tree over the many years. I bet this would be really beautiful lit up with lights at night, but were visiting during the day so unable to see what that might look like. The only drawback was there is a large parking garage behind it that can take away from the natural feel of it a bit, but it is still a marvel to see nonetheless.

It may not have playgrounds and all the fancy things that some parts have but what it does have is an absolutely amazing tree. There are several trees on the property you can walk around there's places that you can sit down you can bring your pets you can picnic you can do all kinds of different things here. I have been going to this park for probably close to 20 years add it never gets old. This tree is absolutely beautiful it is survived so many acts of nature fires storms hurricanes. You can see the wear and tear or some of the branches are twisted but continue to grow. And as I sit underneath this tree it reminds me that as long as you are well grounded nothing or nobody can knock you over you will stand tall and proud. I personally think this is something that everyone should see. And when you read the story about this tree it's absolutely amazing.

When people think of the South and its trees, live oaks like this come to mind. Ancient, 200+ years on this earth, and the thing looks phenomenal. The name “Treaty” oak was a lie made up in order to protect it, so thanks to the chap who did that. There is a boardwalk underneath so as to not damage the roots, but the tree can only be appreciated up close and in person. The tree is older than General Lee and has branches that predate Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., which is fascinating to me. The park is free, just be respectful of the tree and the park which has several other old live oaks. Definitely worth a visit, located just off the interstate, cheers.

It was here long before us and hopefully will be here for hundreds of years more. The widest canopy tree this world traveler has ever seen. I love our big freaky tree. Update: rentable Lime scooters have been added to the park, but it's 49c per minute to rent them. There may be a daily rate. Also, parents! PLEASE keep your kids off the tree! It looks like a branch has already broken off of it! The thing is over 200 years old, it's a historic landmark. It's not ok to climb on historic landmarks! Not safe for them or the tree. There used to be a sign up in the tree saying not to climb on the tree, but I guess people climbed up there and removed it.

What an Awesome piece of history! This 200+ year tree gives many different opportunities for some cool pictures, or to just get outta the car on the way thru town and stretch your legs. Just to imagine all the things this tree has been witness to over it's long life is worth the drop in. Easy access, with up front parking or a parking lot across the street. It's the most beautiful tree that I've ever seen, with so many of Jacksonville's cool sights ap nearby. I highly recommend stopping by for a visit.

Description
The Treaty Oak is a Texas live oak tree in Austin, Texas, United States, and the last surviving member of the Council Oaks, a grove of 14 trees that served as a sacred meeting place for Comanche and Tonkawa tribes before European colonization of the area. Foresters estimate the Treaty Oak to be about 500 years old.
