Wilderness Walking

One of our favorite things to do at Disney is walk (thank goodness, cause walking makes up a good percentage of your time) - especially in the resort portions or the World.  A great place to spend a quite hour walking is a little trail from Wilderness Lodge over to the Fort Wilderness Campgrounds.  You cross over a road and are within a stones throw of a service road, but it is unusually remote feeling, with nothing but trees and overgrown greens along the trail.  The path offers a couple of small detours off to the side back into the foliage, but we tend to stick to the main pathway. Don't be surprised at all when you come across deer crossing the path or simply sitting on the side, snacking on some good Disney greens.  Some bikes use the path, but you will enjoy the peaceful environment if you need a get away.  Of course, at the end of the trail is the stable area of Fort Wilderness, so you can stop and say hi to all the giant horses that are stabled at the Campgrounds.  Walk back through the main area and you will find yourself at the dock where you can grab a boat right back to the Wilderness Lodge where you started.
