Hiking Central Florida describes forty of the region's best and most varied hikes, those that offer the chance to observe unspoiled, natural Florida at its finest. With terrain ranging from wet cypress swamps to dry pinewood forests, the region offers subtly striking scenery and it harbors rich diversity.

It provides all the information you need to make the most of exploring Central Florida by foot.
