Wag! Walkers know Des Pland
Des Pland is a compact neighborhood located on the corner of N
Ridgewood Avenue and San Juan Avenue. While the community is small, it is a pleasant
place to live as it is one block from the Halifax River.
Living in Des Pland means being close to plenty of places to eat ranging from your
favorite fast foods to some of the finest
international cuisine. Living here also leaves you within driving
distance of a few small parks where you and your pup can get in at least a little
play time. For dog food, treats, and toys, there are several pet supply stores
nearby.
You will love the summers here
as the temperatures are in the 90s fairly regularly. Beware, however, of the humidity as it often hits
the 90 to 100% range. Luckily, the winters are why so many people love living
here. The coldest month is January with temperatures in the high 40s during the
day.
What is the terrain like in Des Pland?
Living in this part of Daytona Beach means dealing with flat and mostly urban terrain. You might think this
would lead to some very boring walks. But if all you do is keep going around the same couple of blocks every time
you go out for a stroll, life is going to be pretty boring.
With this in mind, it’s
a good thing you are within walking distance of the walking trail running along
the Halifax River. The trail runs from just past the Main Street Bridge to the north and all the way down to City Island Park. It is very popular with joggers, walkers,
and dog-walkers.
Keep in mind that the pavement on a summer day can
reach high, uncomfortable temperatures. If
you can fry an egg at 120°F, imagine what 135°F is going to do to your dog's paws! Be smart and head out in the morning as the summer weather starts to warm
up.
How many greenways are there in Des Pland?
Living in Des Pland doesn't put you close to much in the way
of green space beyond the trail along the Halifax. The nearest park is Tuscawilla Park where there is at least some grass
and woods for you to enjoy. But if you want more than just a token
park to play in or some serious trails to
go hiking along, it's only a few miles west to the Tiger Bay State Forest and Tomoka Wildlife Management Area.
The WMA has over
30,000 acres of pine-palmetto, cypress swamp, and fresh forest to explore. In 1998, more than 15,000 acres were damaged
and destroyed by the wildfires, but they have since been cleared and are covered with new growth. Hiking through the
park to see all of it will take you weeks of long hikes, but the journey
is well worth it as the scenery is spectacular! Plus, you never know when you might some local wildlife!
