Florida’s Tallest Point (and how to get there)

2017 Travel Tips

How do you get to the tallest point in Florida?

Take an elevator (seriously).

According to today’s Wall Street Journal:

At 345 feet above sea level, Florida’s tallest natural point, Britton Hill, stands less than half the height of Miami’s tallest building, and is the lowest of America’s high points.

–“Climb Every Mountain — Even the Hillock in Florida”; The WSJ (3/10/17).

For now, Miami’s tallest building is the Four Seasons Hotel at 789′ (no idea if there’s an observation deck 🙂 ).

P.S.: Due to Orlando’s higher elevation, the top of Disney World’s Space Mountain ride is also reputed to be one of the highest points in Florida.
