Horseshoe Park and Fairy Trail in Cassadaga Florida

The original 1904 survey layout of the community, showed a meandering circular roadway surrounding the area now referred to as Horseshoe Park. Viewed from above, this shape appears to be similar to that of a horseshoe. The woods on the edge of this park are reminiscent of the environment the early pioneers encountered when first arriving in Cassadaga in 1875. We enjoy this natural beauty preserved as part of one of our oldest natural parks.​

On the northern side, a whimsical Fairy Trail shares part of the park winding through the trees and offering a year around way to enjoy our community’s natural landscape.
In 2013, the Board of Trustees approved creating a fairy trail in a portion of Horseshoe Park. Walking through the white pillars opens visitors to the realm of nature spirits -- pixies, gnomes, and sprites. Decorates such as glittering, sparkling beads hang from tree limbs. Small fairy houses are scattered throughout the trail.
