Find a Park

One of America’s largest springs is protected within Silver Springs State Park, and visitors can explore the area's natural beauty by boat, foot or horseback. Glass bottom boats were invented here and still provide an ideal vantage point for enjoying the natural beauty of this first-magnitude spring.

Eureka serves as an optimal location to explore the riverine section of Rodman down to Payne’s Landing or as a final destination when paddling the Ocklawaha River upstream (south) of Eureka all the way back to Silver Springs State Park.

The Baseline to Marshall Swamp area of the Cross Florida Greenway offers two trails, providing visitors the opportunity to enjoy a paved urban trail or escape to a secluded multi-use trail.

Thirty minutes outside of Orlando, a natural theme park awaits those with a hearty outdoor spirit. The park’s three major lakes will transform idle observers into active participants with canoeing, kayaking and paddleboarding among this park’s many thrills.
