What many Floridians don’t know is that there are over 130 labyrinths in Florida alone, all with their own story. Labyrinths are designed as meditative paths for visitors to walk along in a circuitous route, and then back out again. These paths are intended to be mindful for those who walk, and allow for quiet reflection in nature. While Florida has quite a few labyrinths worth checking out, this one might just be the neatest of all.

Many labyrinths have spiritual ties and can be found behind churches or within the courtyard of a temple.

However, not all labyrinths have to do with religion—in fact, they have been used for centuries as an ancient symbol relating to wholeness.

And despite this particular labyrinth being located at Sholom Park in Ocala, all are welcome to walk through nature in this labyrinth experience.

Guests should remember, there is no correct way to walk the labyrinth—but there are many ways for your personal reflective process.
