The San Felasco Hammock Preserve State Park is a rare example of mature Florida hammock woodland. Much of the 7000 acre park is designated for hiking, providing quiet solitude for a true wilderness experience. The remaining comprises one of Florida’s top mountain biking destinations. Trails include a 1-mile beginner's trail, a 4-mile intermediate trail through rolling terrain, and an 8-mile advanced trail with strenuous hill climbing, steep switchbacks, log bridges, and breathtaking views. While hiking you will witness 18 different biological communities, including sinkholes, sandhills, creeks, ponds, and upland longleaf pine forests. The preserve also hosts rare plants and several recognized hardwood champion trees as well as white-tailed deer, gray foxes, turkeys, many species of songbirds and perhaps even the elusive bobcat. Summer breeding birds include wood thrush and various species of warblers. The winter months bring in migratory waterfowl. It’s no wonder that San Felasco Hammock Preserve State Park is a Great Florida Birding Trail site.
