Florida Trail Association

  1. South Florida

Seminole

The Seminole section of the Florida Trail starts at the southern boundary of the Big Cypress Seminole Reservation and extends north to Lake Okeechobee along a series of canals used to drain what was once the unbroken sawgrass of the Everglades for agricultural use. Hikers will see active ranching and sugar cane harvesting as they are hiking, and encounters with caracara and other raptors are likely. A segment of the trail passes through Rotenberger WMA, where there is a rookery of yellow-crowned night herons.
