Very pretty, safe drive through marshy area of north Lake Apopka. Drive is long, one lane, and one way. Cars stop often to take pictures. This means you will be locked in for a while, maybe an hour. Make sure you have enough gas and kids have used the potty before entering :)
What an enjoyable visit! Blue skies, nice drive, tons of fowl and gators, and a steady light breeze to keep everything cool! Around the pump house were at least 4 gators, some you easily walk right up to. And the view across the lake and the marsh was clear and spectacular! I loved the blue water reflections against the greens and yellows of the grasses, with hidden birds here and there... I highly recommend it!
If you like watching birds, this place is for you! Bring your binoculars and long lenses! You will also see plenty of alligators and if you are lucky, the occasional beaver!
Highly recommend listening to the audio tour to appreciate the hard work the water reclamation team is doing to rid the place of pestisides from decades of bad farming.
There are bugs obviously so you may want to have some bug spray handy!
We have enjoyed so much. This is almost two hours scenic drive (one way); lots of gator and birds. Best place for wildlife photography. No entry fee. The roads is around 20 feet wide, be careful about Gator as it may resting near the roadside.
I had a great experience. I went twice, once with my wife. You will see a lot of wild life prospering. Definitely a relaxing activity too. There is a audio tour that allows you to hear information about each area. Just download the app on the posters.
