Floridas highest point is also the lowest one of all the american states, it's even lower than the highest point in washington (Distric of columbia), neverteless for completeness one might as well visit it, nad it is situated in the far noth of Florida south of the town of Florala, which as one might suspect lies on the border of FLORida and ALAbama. Have to admire the people who come up with these imaginative names...
The high point is located in a park and well marked from the surrounding roads making it one of the easiest located and visited highpoints. It's marked with a nice stone monument declaring the incredible height of 345ft (105m) meaning that most moderate high-rises in Miami and other Floridan towns are actually higher than the natural highpoint of the state. To get higher than the highest natural point climbing a moderate tree in the northern parts of Florida is enough if elevators aren't your cup of tea...
